Better to build it and give thousands of people jobs building it and then managing it, than the alternative. It stays in the accounts of the rich people behind it serving nobody but them. Yes they'll end up profiting from it anyway, but it's basically a form of spreading the wealth around a bit (kinda).

Oh, and getting back to the subject of compensating, can someone please explain to me why you would even think to build vertically in a desert??
