You not accepting what I said isn't me ignoring anything it's just you not accepting it. I have family members who are not college educated they didn't even finish highschool and have started several businesses and done pretty well for themselves. If you voluntarily apply for a job you are working on behalf of the owner by your own free will and again the owner is the one who risked all the capital and pays the worker an agreed upon amount from what is made, so yeah they should get paid more. If you are unhappy with your pay you are able to try to get a raise or quit and go work somewhere else that will pay you more.

How do your friends avoid filing taxes or paying them indirectly?
