How does that have anything to do with what I am saying?

You quoted a gemarah that says someone who buys and sells for the same amount with no profit is not called a merchant.

That has nothing to do whatsoever with what I said. In my case, the merchant will make a profit and charge a little more to support fair wages, perhaps a little less profit also, but he obviously makes a profit. That gemerah is anything is against capitalism as it says profit cannot exceed 1/6th.
