    It’d be more correct to say that they all own the totality of the candy gathered, because they share the bucket, and as such can democratically allocate the candy.

      I like this, I felt like I learned your view better. Unfortunately I’m an individual not a collective. I own my own body and therefore I own the fruits of the labors I endure. I dont think this theoretical democratic “they” should have any say over my body or the products I generate with my efforts.

          Dad owns the bucket and you get 1 piece for every 1000 you collect. Sure Dad’s gonna take 99.9% of the candy, and working together we’d end up each taking home way more candy, but then I’d have to work collectively with “they”! No thanks. /s
