| The average working man gets paid for his work an agreed upon wage. He knows what he will make before he starts the day, he doesn’t have to put up his 401k as collateral before he starts the year, salaries and hourly wages aren’t traded on the board of trade. The government forces his employer to provide healthcare to some degree, workers comp, pay half his social security, overtime rules, OSHA safety standards and so on. Then if he gets fired or just doesn’t want to work there is unemployment, Medicaid and so on. In some cases there’s unions fighting for wages and benefits.
Yea farmers tend to have nice vehicles and homes, but if there wasn’t reward for risk no one would take the risk. Farmers lifestyle is usually more mild than a business owner who’s playing with a similar amount of gross costs of business. | |
