Nationalization is corporate civil asset forfeiture.

This is just a lazy attempt to tie one thing to another, unpopular thing. What is the comparison here aside from "I don't like both"? In what sense is nationalization "corporate civil asset forfeiture"?

Not all nationalization is uncompensated, even in the real world. Further, you can imagine very fair ways, long term, to nationalize companies by e.g. requiring them to pay a wealth tax in the form of equity.

> nationalization: the transfer of a major branch of industry or commerce from private to state ownership or control

> civil asset forfeiture: enables a government to seize property and other assets belonging to persons suspected of committing a crime

The suggestion being that being wildly successful should be a crime.
