having things you invest money in be taken from your ownership and given to the public is literally theft. factories count in this category of investments instead, just put in place regulations like labor laws and condition inspections at the factory's expense to ensure that workers are being treated fair |

Don't say people consent to being employed in such an environment either, because it's either that or starve, or attempt to found a co-op, which from what I've heard is very difficult to get any kind of funds for since nobody will loan to co-ops. |
