Why give the business to the co-owner so they can just get a free business? Auctioning is a better idea so everyone has a shot at getting it. Everyone also has a fair chance at making money, so if you want a business go mine or shovel a lot.

That's how it goes. Think of it as real life, you put a lot of money into the place and hire employees. You had to invest your money into the place to get started to make money. Now they do all the work and you reap the rewards. The money spent at the auction can be considered the same thing as putting money into a business in real life.
