Comment on But how would they be able to live on that?

Re-investment. I figured a typo like that would be safe to assume but oh well.

Measuring the value of a company would be valuations just like now with shares equaling the value of the company. The owner would be divested from the company as it increased in value to separate the two. The value of the company would then be independent of the owner’s share in it.

Valuations are often very wrong, and missing for privately held companies.

Divested and given to who?
