Back when I worked in the brick and mortor world, you were lucky if the boss actually gave you the raise you were due on time. If you were easy to replace (and 95% of people in a company can be replaced), you just worked for your scheduled raises, or else you'd go on the 'shit list'. Also, most companies I worked for did their best to keep the workforce from knowing what they were making off their backs.

Stop thinking that everyone is an entrepreneur. Not everyone is going to jump out and open up shop for themselves. And if you read the last part of my post, you'll see that I stated it would be attractive IF the new 2257 regs make it much harder for a US based newb to get going in this biz. Like I said, I wouldn't want to produce competition.
