Totally agree, but the problem is that 100 million € a year is not enough for these "businessmen".

It would be like capping costs in football. Imagine what the Real Madrid / Manchester United / Any big club would say if they weren´t allowed to spend mora than 100 million euros per season... There might be some F1 teams who would like to spend as much as possible because they can do it, thus making life impossible to the smaller teams.

And some other "businessmen" who do not race but have control over F1 (Mr. Bernie for example) would not like it happening unless it´s totally necessary to fill his pockets even more.

That's why, if F1 is to secure it's long term existence, Bernie has to go. Increasing all kind of commercial costs coupled with little if any return is what brought the sport in the difficult position of losing it's competitors.
