Would it be possible to open alternative businesses, in every industry, that pay their workers well in order to compete with the 1%, conglomerates, etc. or is the entire system rigged against us from achieving this?

Let's say I wanted to open up a new coffee shop to compete with Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks. I'm imagining it would be quite difficult to pay my workers a living wage and still have money leftover to run the business and pay myself? That's just one example, but I'm curious if we can really compete with what is already established and change the paradigm.

I want to know if it's possible for a collective of people, say the middle and lower class, to open alternatives to every greedy business out there, including the big ones like Amazon, Google, Facebook, etc., and create our own network of businesses that don't require us to put profits over people. We boycott every single one that doesn't pay a living wage, doesn't care about environmental impact, etc., and solely use businesses that get a stamp of approval from the middle and lower class.

If we cut the 1% out of our operation, they'll no longer have workers or income, and we eventually win, right?

Is something like this possible?
