For the same reasons you haven’t done so yourself. Also if you’re the owner you can still share profits or vote or whatever else you want.

Why should an owner share profits equally if they’re responsible for most of the startup push?

Because the initial startup push is a time-limited effort. Once the company is more established and the risk is lower, why should a founder get to continue reaping outsize rewards off the backs of others’ labor… indefinitely? Surely there comes a point when their initial risk and effort becomes fully repaid, and a founder has been made whole.

Looks like you’re answering your own question now. I wouldn’t but you can if you want.

Okay fair, sometimes I can lose patience when I feel like I am up against some kind of religious thinking. A lot of good points have been raised in this thread, and I believe in the strength of different ideas coming together to serve a common good, goal for people.
