So how do corporate profits make a minimum wage employee give you a higher quality product or service?
The people in charge of the corporation, the people responsible for key decisions and policies, they do benefit from profits. They are therefore motivated to get what they want from the lower employees, in terms of a higher quality of product or service. If those employees don't follow the instructions from the top, then the company can replace them with more pliant workers. As long as they pay enough, they'll be able to attract qualified replacements willing to do as they're told.
It's all common sense, if you're not determined from the beginning to assume that the free market is evil.
You know what I'm against? I'm against people pretending that the world runs best when its all 'yay free market economy!' and then expecting the taxpayers to subsidize their ****ty businesses to basically act like a socialized program, but one where a ton of money gets taken out the system in profit margins.
The reason you have ****ty public schools is because you're too damn stupid to actually fix the ****ty schools and instead just spout this meaningless crap about how the entire system should be private (yet taxpayer funded anyway).
How is this argument different to:

Other than to fill in the blank to fit your politics.
One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

And you believe this?
Have you even worked for a corporation in your life?
A lot of places don't have high quality in management either. I could cite a certain example.
“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”
"Capitalism ho!"

Scrambled eggs are to be made by adding heavy cream or nothing.
Omelettes should have a tsp of water added if you want them fluffy.
Yes to both. I made scrambled eggs with cream and trompettes de la mort mushrooms for my other half one Valentine's Day for breakfast. Omelettes definitely only with a little water, no milk.
