I hope you have had that opportunity.

As you know, there are very few Starbucks franchises (individual small business owners).
So, why are you comparing a HUGE corporation with a small pizza parlor owner? Small business employs the majority of citizens in this country. You obviously have no clue of the margins a small business, whether pizza parlor, photographer, hair stylist operate under.
