As long as elites don't own anything either, what's to be sad about?
First, define "own". Like "marriage", the definition has shifted over time to whatever family order best suits the state's need to reproduce itself. In our era, capitalist ideology denies the very possibility of a distinction between personal property (one's possessions) and private property (one's exclusive rights over others), but we don't have to accept that conceit. No critic of capitalism is seriously objecting to personal property like toothbrushes and houses.
