Some people believe that employment is not only about how to make money, it should have an
impact
 on the community. I disagree with
this
 statement because the main objective of the business is to create profit as much as possible and
businesses
 cannot be burdened by society’s
responsibility
 because it is the
responsibility
 of the state. The success parameter of any business is related to how much profit can be achieved. Not all
businesses
 can have a positive
impact
 on the social community and it is the
responsibility
 of the
government
 to have a positive
impact
 on the public through the regulations they make.
For example
, in Indonesia, the cigarette trade has a more negative
impact
 on society but their stock value is always higher compared to other
businesses
. Every employment activity already pays tax to the authorities, and it is the obligation of the
government
 to allocate the tax to the programs that have a social
impact
 on the people because the
government
 has a duty to improve the welfare of their people.
For instance
, Indonesia has a minister called the Ministry of Social Affairs who has the duty to distribute

funds from the state to help the community to increase their standard of living. In conclusion, I believe that
businesses
 should not required to have a
responsibility
 towards society because the main purpose of
businesses
 is to create profit as much as possible in order to make their
businesses
 run well and it is the main
responsibility
 of the
government
 to take
this
 kind of
responsibility
.
