I wholeheartedly agree to some extent, but you cannot actually believe that everyone who works for someone else is "following some blind path improving someone else and lining their pockets"?
You're broadbrushing that every business owner is some old mogul in a top hat chomping on a cigar while stepping on the necks of the plebes who got him to his lofty position.
That's so incredibly short-sighted. No one should automatically deserve anything--they should value the opportunity to earn what they desire.
I would challenge virtually every single one of these down-trodden employees to dare try to actually venture out on their own.
Dream up a concept.
Buy a building.
Design the space.
Coordinate and monitor the construction---carpentry, electrical, plumbing, low voltage....
Source, buy, and set up all FF&E.
Set up all the associated business accounts.
Set up a POS if a retail operation.
Handle permitting and licensing with the city and state.
Heck--the list goes on and on--and it doesn't just happen because you wish it would.
Nobody should EVER work where they're not appreciated and/or compensated to their individual level of competence and results, but people do not seem to want to actually earn anything anymore. They somehow feel that they deserve success, and that is a very unfortunate thing.
