The last time you bought milk did you lose or did the grocery store? The last time you paid money for a hair cut, who lost there?
The extreme regulation of all aspects of health care that has developed over the last century has improved some problems and created other problems - the problems specific to healthcare have little to do with the "the very nature of profit/capitalistic societies"
There's way more people involved in that supply chain then me and the store. This is an over simplification.
Outside of the obvious answer of "the cows" - factory farming has been destroying my home state causing huge problems in rural America. Also - the environment. Big time the loser there is the environment for literally any bovine farming.
> The last time you paid money for a hair cut
When I was getting my hair cut professionally I tipped a $20 because I knew the gal cutting my hair working at the midwestern mall Regis Salon was making jack-all. I knew this because I worked at Geeksquad with her boyfriend, eventually husband. If I were not to tip well she would be at-risk for making minimum wage for that hour - and since you can't support yourself on minimum wage I see that as her losing.
I've always tipped my butt off because I know without that they lose.

So yeah - sorry... I anecdotally do see losers in the situations you described. I don't have to look hard to see them.
Factory farming probably does cause externalities that aren't addressed. People could choose to buy from grocers who only source from smaller farms but there isn't as much interest in that due to price sensitivity.
>...and since you can't support yourself on minimum wage I see that as her losing.
Even in the case where you didn't tip, she likely would have preferred having the work than there not being a job available at that location.
