  Yeah, if it wasn't for McDonalds and its awful lobbying, I'd be free to get e. coli from any entrepreneurial burger-griller who was somehow well-recommended on Yelp! (Come on.

    I'd like to see a higher percentage of the work force taking the skills they already have, and seeking the profits themselves instead of sharing them with an employer. When a person leaves the workforce and becomes an entrepreneur who is instead drawing on the workforce to run their business, then they are benefiting the labor market from both the supply and demand sides. There's probably a tipping point that when enough people in an economy become entrepreneurs that prices for labor of all kinds rise on their own.
