So this is just a roundabout way of getting to the original post’s conclusion, right? A nice little coffeeshop may not be possible.

A coffee shop is absolutely possible as long as nobody is interfering in the wage agreed on between employer and employee. We’ve had coffee shops forever and they have done fine. It’s only the modern expectation that they should pay more that is threatening that model.

If you want to work for leas then a living wage, your living will have to be subsidized somehow I guess, do you agree?

No. How to choose to support yourself is up to you to figure out. 3 bad jobs, one good job, you’ll have to figure that out.

Yes, but it gets to the same conclusion in a more condescending way.
