Is business just about making profits?

In this socially and environmentally aware age, it is hard to think businesses are out just to make profits with the amount of companies and organisations who talk about and practice corporate social responsibility today. Yet there are still conflicting views about whether business is essentially about making profits and whether their profit motive does not clash with their corporate social responsibility agenda. What do you think? This is essentially what the debate on this blog is all about. please feel free to give your own opinion. comments and suggestions are most welcomed.
