Oligarchy, yes maybe, but also a weird modern form of feudalism, where companies try to make you pay tribute after they sold you a thing. If you are worried about ownership, this is the top issue you should be thinking about. But ownership is not the issue. The issue is that people conflate ownership and especially money with happiness and live in a society where a lack of money is indeed a source of unhappiness — all while forgetting there are things that make you happy which you as an individual cannot buy with money. E.g. if I were rich in a poor society I am sure I would feel less happy than me being slightly above the median in a wealthy society. That is because a rich person in a poor society is not free and has to constantly worry about loosing their wealth, getting robbed, mugged, kidnapped or otherwise becoming a victim of crimes. And even if you manage that, you are still living with the fact to be part of a society that sucks for most people. Sure you got money, and have it nice in your gated community, seeing only people of your choosing, but that to me wouls not only be utterly dystopian, but an egocentric capitulation of a person who made their wealth from the fruits of a free society. Maybe I am naive, or stupid, but for me it is like this: Either I live in a society and want to improve it, for the benefit of myself and all those around me, or you can become a total recluse and build your own hut, melt your own iron, live your own live in isolation.
