He didn't call you a neo-liberal. Your whole argument however does rely on the now widespread (and false) assumption that anything worthwhile can be made profitable with the current economic system.
By the way, Alan Kay has built stuff people can actually use. Scratch, for instance is so usable that even children can learn it.
Ah. Learning. I don't want to assume, but it looks like you missed the part where Alan Kay wants the general public to learn about computers, and stops viewing them as magic golems. This is a completely different ball game from merely making a popular consumer device.
