I have someone working for me right now on a project. My short term ROI is a loss, but that’s only tolerable because my long term ROI on her labor is 10,000x. The fact that I am upside down today is simply part of my educated risk towards an ROI she will never share in. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s capitalism. But we are not equal winners simply because my investment pays a calculated, deferred payout.
But what happens if the business fails and never makes a profit? There are many businesses where after a few years, the employees made $100k and the owner lost all of their invested money. I don't see where this argument can take into account what an employee or owner makes.
If a person simply wants to own a house and making a good living, that person can be 100% happy earning a paycheck. How is that not a win-win for both employee and employer? It really depends on the employee's goals. You can't say that person is losing just because you think your way is better or provides more freedom for them. That is you projecting your beliefs onto someone else who may or may not have the same beliefs.
I really don't understand your logic in this argument at all. So I guessing I'm voting for Kak.
