sell franchises
“Raymond Albert Kroc (October 5, 1902 – January 14, 1984) was an American businessman. He purchased the fast food company McDonald’s in 1961 and was its CEO from 1967 to 1973. Kroc is credited with the global expansion of McDonald’s, turning it into the most successful fast food corporation in the world by revenue.”
“Kroc was born in Oak Park, Illinois, and worked a variety of jobs, including as a paper cup salesman and a musician, before eventually becoming a milkshake mixer salesman. In 1954, he visited a hamburger restaurant in San Bernardino, California, owned by Richard and Maurice McDonald. Kroc was impressed with the efficiency and speed of the restaurant’s operations, and he convinced the brothers to allow him to franchise the concept.
“Under Kroc’s leadership, McDonald’s grew rapidly, and he implemented several key innovations, including the creation of a standardized menu and the development of a highly efficient assembly-line system for food preparation. Kroc also focused on aggressive expansion, opening new restaurants across the United States and eventually in other countries as well.”
“Kroc was born on October 5, 1902, in Oak Park, Illinois, near Chicago, to Czech-American parents, Rose Mary [née Hrach] (1881–1959) and Alois “Louis” Kroc (1879–1937).”
“After immigrating to America, Alois made a fortune speculating on land during the 1920s, only to lose everything with the stock market crash in 1929.”

That doesn’t address this.
Anyone can start a lawn business and only use their name for it and file taxes from that as business income, yet, not be an employee of your own one person businesses. Another option is to incorporate and make yourself an employee. Unfortunately, you have to give yourself a legal minimum wage.
If that is $15, then having a franchise or not means nothing and you have no benefit.
If we all have to be employees, this is where it goes.
