Would you say it matters who owns and therefore controls these Means
of Production?

If so, then, in your opinion, who would, ideally, those owners be?



1.) Should it be the Workers who manufacture, install, maintain and
improve them?

2.) Should it be the End-Users who want them enough to pay for them?

3.) Should it be some combination of those?

4.) Should it be the currently corrupt governments?

5.) Should it be the fuedalists that already own them, and we should
just beg them to do the right thing?
