My wife and I had no safety net when we started our business. I have no family to rely on and my wife's mom is in no way able to help us at all. We risked everything to run our own business. If it failed we were going to be sleeping in our car with our 3 dogs. We worked, and saved every dime for years, took personal loans, pulled money out of our IRAs and used credit cards for start up capital and equipment.
Once again you assume too much and use broad brushes to simplify the world so that you can understand it.
What about welfare? Was that available when you started your business?
Would you like to do away with welfare entirely?
Because it was there for you when you started your business.
It's called a safety net.
And most business owners do have someone they could fall back on.
And did you get government loans? I guess it is really hard to get loans today, unless you are a high roller like you clearly are.
