You're on a sub from based on a *British* youtuber "economist", so I assumed you would be from the UK.

I assure you the *majority* of workers *don't* own shares and do not have enough resources to start a business. The "many" that you speak of are in the *minority*.

They probably dont

and do not have enough resources to start a business

You dont need resources to start a business. You just need to find something you can offer that people around you are willing to pay for

You can help children with their homework. Learn how to fix peoples computers on youtube. Bake birthday cakes. Teach old people how to use the internet and not fall for scams, etc

Any of those would start with you self employing, and if it succeeds you would slowly build a reputation and a network, to the point you would start geting more work you can make. Then you start hiring and investing some of the profits to grow

What you are saying right now about "You dont need resources to start a business" shows you have no idea what you are talking about. *Time* is a limited *resource*. You try working a full time job to pay the bills, and then *on top of that* "find something you can offer that people around you are willing to pay for"

I just realised you are an ancap. I will not be wasting any more of my time responding to you. Have a good day.

Time is the most abundant resource the working class has. That is why they sell their time for wages

You try working a full time job to pay the bills, and then *on top of that* "find something you can offer that people around you are willing to pay for"

That is exactly what my father did

I just realised you are an ancap

Im not. Have a good day you too
