As a percentage of total sales $3B is far less than other companies, for instance the beloved Apple makes far more profit in percentages.
People suck at using context, they only look at numbers, especially large numbers.
Remember: it takes people spending unwisely for companies to make absurd profits. If you don't support these companies making that kind of money, don't buy from them. I don't buy overpriced Apple products that line Apple's pockets with cash, like you can choose to take the electric bus rather than buy gas and oil products.
