My main office has 8 employees. We clean our own place. If you need a cleaner, hire one. If you’re not big enough to support that, clean it yourself. Maybe you need phones answered, hire someone that can clean when they’re not on the phone.
If you needed to have a composer, they become part of your team, or you buy music from them. The composer wouldn’t be a contractor from a company, but rather somene who produces their own art and can sell it as they see fit, or they work on the payroll for the project. This not only gives more power to creators, but cuts out every leech middleman driving up prices and lowering average wages. Mass communication through the internet has killed the necessity for giant advertising firms to get your name out there.
For franchises, I would argue anyone running a McDonalds works for McDonalds. Hit that cap of 2500, and suddenly there’s room for competition and innovation, instead of a sea of the same trash everywhere you go.
Easy laws that could stop this bullshit:
A company can’t own other companies.
A company cannot have more than 2500 employees.
A company cannot employ contractors, outside or temporary workers numbering more than 10% of it’s total work force.
No mega corporations, no buying out competition, no loopholes to employment standards.
Edit; forgot a main one
No c suite billionaires avoiding paying the workers.
We DO have very explicit laws against it, they have just sat unenforced since the 80’s (except for a few brief years in the 2020s).
