Starting your own business has become a taunt by fiscal conservatives, and trust me I have looked into this and people like sex workers are not allowed to do so for long (they want you to work “in a house” for a glorified pimp in Nevada as an employee or contractor), drug dealers aren't either unless they are employed by the pharmaceutical industry, and you can scoff and say that sex and drugs are vices but so is fast food, alcohol, cigarettes and so are numerous “conveniences” in our “capitalist society.”
In Los Angeles the police terrorize food vendors who have been selling quality items for up to twenty-five years since they're not a standing business in a building (I guess? I think it's racism tbh since a lot of these vendors are Latinx). Food isn't a vice.
If you do something legit like have a store, well just beware Wal-Mart or Target or Amazon or Applebees or Wendy's because they want to drive out your small business.
Restaurant owners are traditionally in the red for up to five years, and most restaurants fail.
YouTube demonetizes channels they don't like.
Have a missed something? We can only have so many freaking dog-walkers and pet sitters.
