Workers are not pointed a gun to do the job. Given the opportunities they have, they are choosing this specific opportunity. This means that this service is increasing their expected value from the job. I don't see how this can be bad.

Read comment below for my take on that. I'm not blaming anyone or saying it's morally wrong, just exploring a different arrangement.
What's the problem then? Having management? 'Stealing' profit from the workers?

You can't seem to understand that 1000 workers doing 'their' job may be hundrends of times less productive than doing the same job under the same company. Lots of things (machinery, know how, etc.) need a company and a capital.

Finally, I also don't understand discussing capitalism. Here we are discussing freedom for individuals to work and to create a start up. What would you rather do? Force everybody down the same principles? Not sure it's right.

Problem? None. I think you need to re-read the thread with a lighter head.
