Every industry in the US that isn't outright literally communist ie schools, roads, police, fire etc, Then are made into monopolies / oligopolies. And the industries that can't be turned into monopolies / oligopolies are just taxed the shit out of and regulated as much as they can to slow them down.
Then the tax money is funneled back into VCs etc so they can decide which new companies get a chance to start in the US and get preownership, or the tax money is funneled to the monopoly / oligopoly corps through stock market "investments" often in the form of "state pension investments" or grants, "corporate welfare" etc.
Also ownership? House ownership? You don't own anything that has a standing tax on it. You're renting it. At best you "bought" the privilege to modify it. But even then you have to ask permission. The reason being obvious. You don't own it.
