When thinking about Hollywood, Disney, Pixar, Industrial Light & Magic, Times Square in NYC while at the same time there are 'food deserts' not in some sparsely inhabited parts of 'fly-over-country' but metropolitan regions, i tend to disagree. Furthermore, profit for whom? Eternal competition is tiring, and may even end in a race to the bottom.

SPLAT!

Profit for everyone? The general premise of capitalism is you have to make something someone else values. If more people get value from it, and they get more value from it, you make more money, so you're very incentivized to benefit as many people as much as possible.
