Rephrasing: a business is a potentially immortal organism. The shares are a fraction of ownership of the organism. So zero dividend business really means building and selling organisms themselves. It's analogous to slave trade (with no negative connotations).
Cool thing about the organism is that it can be whatever it needs to be, more intelligent than the owner, whatever.
(The business can become autonomous and not so much controlled by the owner. Roughly speaking, laws that require corporations to act in their own monetary interest are analogous to anti-slavery laws.)
