A little humorous for you to tell me what I can admit to myself or not. Also ironic considering you assume more profit automatically means more jobs. Seems that you have a romanticized relationship with this capitalistic utopia that doesn’t exist.

More profit does mean more jobs or better capital goods and deflation. One of the two. Either way more profit is more progress. That's just factual.
I’m sorry, what does “progress” mean to you and while you’re at it, what did you “progress” mean to…I don’t know Omo 1, a homo sapien that lived approx 233k years ago?
Progress is just having more today than yesterday. It's the story of mankind.
More what?
Just more. More purchase, power, more goods, 1+1 is progress. 1-1 is regress
