That's not why. You can totally make a government-run cafe chain funded from the budget without the profit motive. But, just like with any other program that would benefit only the working class, there's no billions of dollars in profits, so no one is going to lobby this thing into existence. The only way to do this is by having a whole bunch of people with political will, and we don't have that.
This is why the liberal model is dominant.
