Whatever dollar per hour you make you are generating a rario of 1-9 for the company .
If you make 10 bucks an hour your time or service is generating about 100 an hour for your company -
This is the same ratio that existed in feudalist times -
Difference being that the crop on a wagon was highly visible as it left for the over lord - Now this is hidden neatly
Do you own a home ? Do you pay property tax ? What happens if you don't pay your property tax .....What happens if you don't pay your rent ? Same thing you get evicted don't you ?
So do you own this home or do you rent it from the government at a reasonable rate?

THIS IS NOT ROME
I think we both know that there are some shoe string business's out there - These are going the way of the dinasour because of chains like Walmart - where the ratio more than applies - The real dificulty is that the world will not let go of the fairness idea that is so wrong - The relationship you have to the elite has not changed in any way except your better treated as a result of technology that isn't that old and so forth .

Well, I pay my mortgage to a bank ... who may employ government staff, but mostly employ people like me. If I'm run over by a bus, I guess my life insurance (death insurance, really) policy will pay off the mortgage so that I can leave it to my family instead of having a king or queen grab it for the Crown.
My friends got married and bought a house together - the previous occupants owed €25,000 in mortgage payments, but would not leave! Eventually, they did, and their Two banks settled for a payment of €9,000. They did not wish to evict a family until they had somewhere else to go.
Isn't that progress? I agree with you, though, if one person could afford a house and now two people hold down four jobs to buy a place of their own, that is unbalanced. But think - they will do that, and so single people see the market price rise, because people are prepared to pay that, and they also must meet that price or forever pay rent. It's crazy. Worth it, but inflation won't let go easily, and you have to live your life! The novelty of sharing with strangers wears off very quickly!

Wages are much better, and your numbers are as imaginary as your premise. The only one stopping you from owning your own business is you, and it looks like you need to take out a loan and do it. So be the business that gobbles up Walmart. It's called competition. Stop fearing it and get into the game.

Your ratio is way off. I know for a fact, I am an employer!!! Good point about PT. You technically never own it, but it doesn't automatically default to the gov. either. At least not right away. :)
