If you take a very narrow view of "make money"
They are immensely valuable to the owners and an important part of the systematic maintenance of people as "consumers" rather than "citizens".
We would be better off, over all, without the whole thing.

Its not a particularly "narrow" view, FWIW, because most businesses have a P&L sheet that will list expenses and revenues, and entire business units have big "costs" and not so big "revenue". Which is what "don't make money" means.
