maybe the key is to tax free enterprise enough
that it pays for society's basic necessities but
not so much that it destroys the incentive to profit.


But not in some crude way where you take away their profits. Rather you reward them for behaving like Greyston Bakery and penalize them if they don't - i.e. you so structure the workplace, that if you act immorally, you're at a competitive disadvantage. That way, Adam Smith works for the betterment of the society.
