Fully agreed - yet, we as a society consistently and systematically trade (or let "others" trade) much more critical aspects of life, such as quality of air, water, food etc. for short-term profits, even though that very often has no clear/direct positive impact on any other comparably valuable aspects of our lives.

So it's no wonder that "some people losing their jobs and needing to move for a new one" is irrelevant, when the only goal is profit maximisation, even though we don't even understand what for.
