If you don't use a framework then obviously you are writing nothing but mickey mouse programs, and wouldn't stand a chance when it comes to writing a proper application. For example, I have just completed an ERP application which contains 130 database tables, 230 relationships and 1000 transactions. Because I used a proper framework I managed to complete all of this in just 6 months. The framework allowed me to generate initial working components without having to write any code whatsoever - no PHP, no HTML and no SQL - so that I could spend the bulk of my time on the really important stuff, which is implementing the business rules. That is the benefit of a proper framework - it takes care of the boring repetitive stuff and leaves you more time to deal with the tricky stuff. If you think you can achieve the same level of productivity WITHOUT a framework then you are living in cloud cuckoo land.
