A company that cannot earn a decent rate of return on its capital 
investment is on its way to becoming history!  And companies generally 
cannot make that profit "at the expense of everything else".  A company 
can screw it's customers.  Once!  After that word gets around and the 
company is history.  Possibly the management may be history and the 
company can survive.
