$250,000 isn't a lot of money to the average person

Thats literally 5-6x the median annual income what the hell are you smoking. That is a life changing amount of money to most of the country.

they didn't take the profit from anyone

They took that profit from the people working there. Profit is the difference between expenses and income. In order to turn a profit companies cannot pay workers what their work earns the company, there has to be a difference. In economic parlance this difference is referred to as surplus value being generated by the workers for the company. If workers were paid what they were worth then the profit margin of that company would be 0% but those people would all be paid more than they are now. Whether you think the workers are entitled to the full value of what they create is an ideological determination that I will judge you for.
