Throw out this idea you have of "the poor unfortunate rich people who are barely able to make ends meet, they're just trying to do a social service there's barely any profit to it waaaaah", it's not the case at all.
That's actually not my idea, I'm not sure where you got that. They hire people because it's cheaper than automating everything. If suddenly human employees cost more than machines, the human employees will be replaced with machines. It's really not all that complicated and I'm a little surprised you have so much trouble understanding it.
