Honestly that's what's wrong with capitalism and property rights. We can understand what it means to own a thing like a piece of furniture, or a house, and "a person's home is their castle" rings true. But scale that up to individuals controlling resources that affect a neighborhood, a city, a country, or the world -- at each step their army of voters supports their right to own 800 billion dollars or whatever, same as they own their own houses -- it's only fair! And if they want to build a starbase and launch some rockets near your house and sensitive ecology they're just exercising the same rights you or I have, and attack on their ability to inflict damage on the community is an attack on all.

[edit] and the same goes for corporations owning "means of production". It's not the same as owning an iPhone.
