I agree with you entirely. But it's just like any other industry: easy entry and minimal investment usually results in lower returns. A physician hasn't spent all those years studying late at night expecting to work for minimum wage. Neither would a floorsweeper with a GED normally expect to become CEO of General Motors.
If people are genuinely "hungry" (and I assume you mean to better themselves, not just acquire food) then let them obtain some marketable skills.
After paying my own way through a very good Class A driving school, I quickly decided pulling a trailer didn't look like a lot of fun. A DR unit seemed the best way to reach a happy compromise - with the potential of good money.
I was 'fortunate' enough to be able to acquire the necessary training and credentials on my own (because I worked hard at other businesses), but don't tell me there aren't avenues by which a "hungry" person can't do the same things. It really all boils down to expectations and what one is willing to do to achieve them.
