That is also true of a bookcase.
I have here a bookcase I bought from IKEA the other day. I own it. If I want to sell it to you, I can do that. If I want to give it to my mother, I can do that, too. If I want to donate it to the church rummage sale, I have that option. None of those pay the creator of my bookcase anything. Should they?
