RE: Why Free Speech is Everything.

in #politics7 years ago

This is why privatization of everything is a necessity. Nature itself is essentially a private enterprise.

Nature is the opposite of a private enterprise, it is owned by no one and does not produce out of selfish interest.

In fact private property, especially on anything you cannot around yourself, is a relatively new legal fiction, younger then communally owned things.
And there is no private property that has survived to serve a certain purpose as long as communally managed and non-owned "institutions".

Sort:  

Good, then as I have said to you before, I'll be over around five for dinner. Glad there is no such thing as private property or I couldn't freely raid your fridge, Lenny!

I have never said there is no private property. I said that the idea of private property that extents on things you cannot carry around yourself is a (historically looking) new idea. Even today human tribes exist that would laugh at the idea that you can own land, a tree or a river.

Yes, and I'm sure @kafkanarchy84 will laugh at the idea that you can own a fridge filled with food, just as you laugh at the idea of owning people, or laugh at the idea of owning a cow, or a taco tree, or whatever else.

If all real estate is private, where it the orphan alloweed to stand? Where can he eat, drink and sleep? Where is he even allowed to speak?

If you expell him from your land, whose land will you be putting him on? Aren't you contributing to the violation of that others property rights?

He can't even earn without the permission of an existing owner... sounds like tyranny by the encombants to me.

Nature is the opposite of a private enterprise

Right. Animals don't have territory, rivers don't have banks, and your internal organs are not contained within your body as an independent system, separate from the systems of other organisms, essentially. Also, I can magically stand in the exact same space in which you are standing. It's magic.

The dog has a territory, but he does not own the land or the river.
That part of me is inside me does not make it my property. It is me. My table is not me.

And yes, you can stand in exact the same space as me, just wait, I make a step to the side ;)

You can't be so obtuse as to not know what I meant, Lenny. I meant at the same time, of course. Have a good day. ;)
