That's what makes folks complicit capitalist slaves, like the majority of the "legitimate" tech community. Part of the reason being an entrepreneur is so damned hard is because we live in a system that MAKES it hard for the outsider to succeed, encouraged by institutional structures (like healthcare and its related costs) and by ideological compensation (I work 70 hrs a week, but so long as I can buy my beemer and my ipod, I'm worthy of being human). It's not Starbucks or any other business specifically that needs to change, its people's attitudes toward business, and the worth of their work, that will keep us from cruising toward oppresive monopolies that run our lives by stomping out any other liveable source of income.
