You might hate to hear it, but even our social systems, healthcare and all, are built around "privatizing" profits.

Even if things are nicely socialized for everyone or at least most, you still have to grow in order to function as an economy. This is basically the reason why the nice social democracies decayed into thatcherite systems. We're just being actively ignorant by not wanting to recognize that the tail of the dragon, social democracy, belongs to a whole beast.
