i always just thought this was because it is a less desireable business to own than most others.

if you, an average american, had the choice to buy a gas station/convenience store/liquor store/etc., or basically any other type of small business, what would you choose?

maybe i'm wrong, but i think this defintely plays a major part of it.

The problem is that a lot of educated people would never work in a liquor store or gas station because they think it is degrading. Little do they know that the guy selling cigarettes and beer is making double or triple what they make working in their cubicle. Although you do have to factor in the longer hours and risks involved in owning those type of businesses.
