For most people, working 9-5 is "freedom". Doesn't seem like it on the surface - workin' for the MAN, etc, tote that bale - but an employee doesn't have to worry about keeping the lights on, paying payroll taxes, swings in business, etc. He/She gets their $500 a week (or however much) and that's that. They KNOW what they're going to be making that week, unlike business owners who's "income", after expenses etc, can vary WILDLY from week-to-week. Owning your own business is exciting and gives you more control but it's also filled with unease, stress, nervousness, etc etc.
Employees face the stress of being fired, of course, or laid off, but not the stresses of actually maintaing the business. So no, an employee will not, generally, care more than "the Boss" unless that employee feels like they are part of the business, profit-sharing-wise.
EDIT: Hiring people so you can spend more time doing other things to grow your business is KEY. Of course, FINDING those people...
