You are completely uninformed and don’t understand capitalism. I see the people around me, this is why I am a communist. For the love of god grow up and stop making excuses. Those sole proprietorships are still part of a larger structural problem that is literally destroying the world. Read a damn book.
But they are living off of the value produced by their workers, assuming it’s not just literally the owner working. Also, most small business owners I’ve worked really scummy and shady. A lot of people go into business because they are literally unemployable. Personality disorder, criminal past etc. You are much more likely to be a victim of wage theft.
I know what you mean, but lots of folks with personality disorders are fine, and most people with personality disorders are disproportionately more likely to be victims of abuse than abusers themselves. Similarly with crimes, stuff like stealing food for the value of ten bucks can put you in jail in some places, not to mention the criminalization of homelessness and the selective enforcement that targets racialized people more. I do agree that there’s lots of business people who are terrible but I don’t agree on the reasons.
There are a lot of shops here wifh literally the owner working(and in some cases their family also do work there).
And don’t judge people with only this much info. You are attributing personality disorders to people you don’t even know
A lot of people go into business because they are literally unemployable.
Man, then who are supposed to employ them? Id you are employed, then it must be some business, except for government jobs(which only take a handful of people)

Small businesses, at least in my area have the owners themselves work. So yeah means of production are owned by workers.
For the love of god read capital
For the love of god see people around you

Where do you propose we shop?
Wherever, we are not going to consume our way to a better future.
Agree to disagree then
