The ethic of today's "entrepreneur" is to rent seek - don't provide a product or a service, simply find a way to be a predatory squatter on a chokepoint between people who do useful things and people who use those things.

if they can't find each other on their own, then you're literally providing a useful service by connecting them.

Literally nobody can provide credit liquidity on /biz/

FYI a good business man is the opposite of productive, a good businessman makes money from LESS, a productive worker makes money from MORE. Hence the word productive.

It's inverse for anybody that isn't a slave.

I prefer the analogy "picking up breadcrumbs from the elites". I mean literally all you can do if you aren't in a high frequency trading firm is pick up bread crumbs that are left in the wake of the elites chaos. Lmfao.

Are you going to let them pick up their own bread crumbs?

right, like the group of people who construct houses and the group of people who want to live in them but can't afford to buy them

There is also the analogy of "cutting the froth from the beer glass", you do no harm by trimming the foam. There is no competition for the foam. You can have it without a fight. Take it. The elites just want their beer.

The entrepreneur creates the flow in the first place. Without him, the flow wouldn't exist.
Simple example:
People want shoes. Nobody is producing shoes. Nobody is getting shoes. Then someone opens a shoe factory and people can now buy shoes. Then that someone harvests some of the value-flow.
