Hmm. I think you are missing some important information here.
I’m sure you know how it goes for most people who create property: EG Factory workers make some product, are paid for it, but do not own the product. The same is true for people who create intellectual property. They get paid for their work but the employer owns the property. You only own what you make in your own time, unless or until you sell it.
You’re talking about paying property owners for providing no services at all.
