The premise starts with “You built a factory out there.”

Stop right there.

That person’s risk may cost him everything if he is not successful. His money. His home. Every last cent.

I’ve lived through that. Don’t tell me about you wanting to take my wealth but not my risk. Don’t even.

She is correct in that a person cannot build a factory without the help of others. However, what she refuses to acknowledge and what she despises is that he entered into many private agreements with many individuals who all individually felt that helping him would give them a win too. It is not the government who helped him, it was lots of private individuals who agreed to help him in return for wages.

It really does define the world view difference between them and us. she does not believe that private individuals have the right to engage in private transactions and then claim personal success.
