I'm not sure if you read the comment I was responding to, but it sounds like if you had, you would agree that it was presenting a totally irrelevant argument.

No it's not. He was talking about the owner losing power over his own business due to hiring an employee.

That is not comparable to two employees with different responsibilities.

He was making irrelevant points about the owner having put their whole life into a business for 30 years and an employee being brand new. None of those are relevant to whether an owner should have more power than an employee, unless he'd like to make exceptions for e.g long-term employees and someone who just bought an existing business.
