        Small business owners are just the attempt by the bourgeoisie to facilitate the growth of a reactionary peasant class to put downward pressure on labor. They're nothing but a tool of oppression and are just as expendable as the average worker. When It comes down to it, it's always the big bourgeoisie on the first life boats, and they charge a fee for the rest.
