You haven't proved anything. All you've done is tried to convince yourself. And apparently, you haven't done a very good job at that because you seem desperate to get everyone else to agree with you.
It doesn't matter that most of the economic activity occurs in small firms, since they are in competition and each only controls a tiny piece of any market. Using that same logic, the labor controls all business decisions and the economy and is more prosperous than management because they outnumber management and, collectively, earn more money.
Small firms and private businesses are not analogous to self-employed workers, they are more like migrant workers, depending on bigger firms for credit, markets, and contracts. Have you ever talked to a gas station operator and asked him what he thinks of the oil companies? You pass yourself off as the champion and defender of small business but you don't even realize that no one here is opposed to small business; they aren't the problem, they are victims too.
Your numbers are not incorrect, they just have nothing to do with what we're talking about. They are not even wrong.
