And when people pay you more than what it costs for you to make it, does that equation end up leaving you with money left over, i.e. profits.

But in the real world, you couldnt really just split a family down the middle, mom on one side, dad the other, with the child equally divided between. It was like when you ripped a piece of paper into two: no matter how you tried, the seams never fit exactly right again.
