It highly depends on what someone's life priorities are. If you don't want to spend your lifetime on working for someone else or being a "modern slave", making earnings from faucets (even if it is much less money than working for someone) can be very satisfying.
So you're saying that the faucet owner isn't making money? 
If you could earn 100 000$ or 10 000$ you should the 10k version because you don't want to work for someone else? That is highly illogical.
