There's actually a third group: many folks in poor countries have no option but to start some sort of business as jobs pay very little.

There's a supermarket chain in Uruguay that started from selling vegetables on a street corner.

There's this guy near my house that sells electronics at a traffic light. I've been witnessing his business grow and grow and now he has a car full of stuff parked nearby.



That third group exists in the US, too. They're a large part of who I was thinking of.
