Why are there so many Junkers?

[Thyrzul]

Now all of you try to defend the idea of Junkers being rich as fekk with reasons such as influence, relations, diplomacy, smuggling, piracy... after all of this I really don't see why scrap mining would be so important and a significant part of your profits that it cannot be remade into a beginner-friendly activity. Even those who do more than scrapping only do scrapping to mask their more profitable but less legal activities with it.
