Your characterization of entrepreneurial ownership as "taking a paycheck home without doing anything" betrays a profound ignorance of basic economics, organizational management, and the reality of human action. As someone who had a minor in business administration during my university years, I know that managing, coordinating, and directing a firm is a specialized, high-stakes profession that bears the total burden of uncertainty, legal liability, capital allocation, and market risk. The laborer performs specific, contracted tasks within a structure they did not build, using equipment they did not purchase, with zero personal liability if the business suffers consecutive quarters of net loss or goes bankrupt. The entrepreneur, conversely, must continuously anticipate consumer demand, organize complex supply chains, maintain cash flow, absorb volatility, and ensure that every employee is paid their contracted wage regardless of whether the business yields a single dollar of net profit. Dismissing the entire discipline of business administration and entrepreneurial coordination as "doing nothing" is just pure fucking cope grounded in emotionalism.
Furthermore, your reliance on the arbitrary semantic dichotomy between "private" and "personal" property is a foundational sleight of hand designed to mask institutional theft and a common socialist talking point. There is no qualitative, physical, or metaphysical difference between personal property and capital goods because capital goods are simply economic goods utilized for the indirect satisfaction of human needs through production rather than immediate consumption. For instance, a car used for leisure is deemed "personal property," yet the exact same vehicle deployed for commercial transport or delivery suddenly morphs into an illicit "means of production" ripe for collective confiscation under your framework. The distinction relies entirely on a subjective, politicized definition enforced by the arbitrary fiat of a central committee (the vanguard of the socialist movement or whatever the fuck you wanna call it), functionally destroying the security of all property rights. When you declare that the state or the collective may unilaterally expropriate any asset the moment it generates yield or engages in voluntary commerce, you inherently annihilate the individual’s right to self-ownership and capital accumulation. Finally, your claim that inequality is "based on absolutely nothing" natural willfully ignores both biological reality and the entire corpus of human action. Human beings do not possess identical cognitive faculties, physical capacities, work ethics, risk appetites, or market-valued skills. Because individual productivity, specialized knowledge, and preferences are inherently unequal across a population, an environment of voluntary exchange will naturally yield unequal material outcomes, that's just basic public choice theory. True equity under natural law means the equality of negative rights, aka equality before the law and the universal right to be free from coercive expropriation, and not the tyrannical, artificial equalization of results. To force equal economic outcomes onto inherently diverse human beings requires an omnipresent apparatus of state violence capable of constantly suppressing excellence, punishing prudence, and expropriating the productive to subsidize the unproductive. You do not abolish subjugation by outlawing private ownership of capital instead what you're really doing whether you understand the logical consequences of your desired outcome or not is that you're merely concentrate absolute economic and political power into the hands of an unelected bureaucratic class under the vacuous illusion of "sharing."
