Whats your solution?
It sounds to me like you're advocating a standard compensation?
"He doesnt need to make that much money. He should be spreading it around more."
Let them eat cake?
More and more often I keep thinking that before you become awarded with your Union Membership card you should have to be in Business for yourself for a year.
Just for some perspective. Its rough.
It seems like people think you just head to the registry office, incorporate and then just wait for the cash to roll in!

The only business model that you could call consistently successful and where you put up a shingle so to speak and the cash starts rolling in are Drug Dealers and Pimps.
There's this fallacy that its easy to make money in a small business, and its so wrong that it hurts. For the most part opening a small business means that you lose a lot of money until you establish your market place and if you get noticed by a bigger business in the same sector they actively work to undercut you and destroy you before you can get a foothold.
I know a lot of small business owners that don't make gobs of money business wise and usually take a pretty steep haircut on the personal income side to get their business established.
And then when they get to the point of expansion or adding employees it becomes a whole other battle because one bad hire can have nuclear explosion like effects on your business unlike bigger business that can absorb the hiring and onboarding to effectiveness cycle.
Personally Iggy and no slight intended, but throwing out the whole "They don't have a good business model" is about as clueless as they come, especially in the restaurant and bar business which is extremely cut throat especially with so many big player franchise stores out there that group buy their supplies.
The writer of that letter to the sun, laid out some pretty strong math and you chose to ignore it.
