Then stop arguing with internet strangers and go out and do it yourself. I can't make this any clearer - if you think its unfair, that they take a disproportionate amount, that you work soo much harder, quit bitching and quit. Because I can guarantee you won't - the job security, less responsibility and ability to let someone else worry if you have work or not is far too comfortable. At will works both ways.

~95% of businesses fail in the first 5 years. Have fun.

You are right about some people being too comfortable (or not knowledgeable on how) to start their own business, but that's not the whole story.

A business will always fail if it doesn't have the quality employees to run it. A business cannot function without employees.

Just because one side has more risk upfront doesn't mean they should keep the vast majority of the profits for themselves, forever. Long-term it's still a team effort.

There's nothing wrong with sharing the wealth that's produced from the effort which is done by all.
