    As I've explained to my co-workers in restaurants before, they're no better morally than any other business owners they're just too egotistical or stupid to just follow the easy money and open a franchise, which makes them more unpredictable and dangerous.

    Like you think they wouldn't own large businesses if they could? That remaining small is their goal? Fuck no, your mom and pop store's dream would be to be Wal Mart. They're the capitalists coming near last place and don't deserve your pity any more than another richer capitalist. The exploitation is the same and it's harder to organize against a business where the owner is there every day.

      Absolutely. A coworker today relayed their cousins path from coin op carwash owner, to PPP loan multiple car wash owner, to PPP loan apartment owner. Dude’s still actively seeking to acquire more.
