    do you not consider owning stocks "being a business owner/rent-seeking"? if not why

      I highly doubt anyone posting here is wealthy enough to have a large enough stake in a company to be considered a business owner.

      Whether or not investing in stock is moral is a different question I guess, but I don't think whether a few communists/anarchists participate or not in the stock market makes any material difference to its existence, but it can have a benefit to their lives
