Then you own nothing and are merely a slave to the government.

yeah and do you think that's wrong kizza

@ManAnimal in ur butt <:ahegon:566797166258028548>

do you have a right to purchase?

Let me put it this way.

you don't have the right to own property

Do you like monopolies??

in this scenario

UCC wouldn't seem to agree

Owning property falls more into a freedom afforded by a government.

not particularly kizza

It's neither a right nor a service.

This chat:

"freedom afforded by.. " cringe

Hey, gotta make the distinction.

Ik :3

Then you should be against the idea of the government having a near absolute monopoly on everything from property, food etc.

This is the ultimate form of tyranny.

maybe; at it's foundation, their is a degree of mental gymnastics atheists perform calling rights 'natural' yet not acknowledging that requires a believe in god

so you think it's bad because you oppose monopolies

is that what you're getting at

Anyone with common sense is against a purely authoritarian government claiming ownership over all property.

i don't give a fuck if you oppose it i just want the reason

all government is authoritarian per conditions

It's simple logic that one who owns it all will only lead to tyranny.

that's no logic

it's emotional rhetoric

what if the government just mandated very extreme redistribution of private property

ownership breeds stewardship

no one will respect it.

say there's a 100% estate tax, 100% income tax at like 100,000$ a year and above, and so on

Then you would have created the illusion of equity and the system would inevitably collapse over time.

do you think that would violate people's rights?

No shit.

Nobody would want to work

why would that violate people's rights

what do taxes have to do with rights?

Alright, I'll concede your point - property ownership is a right.

taxes are overhead nessecary to facilitate gov

Because you're ignoring the fundamental part of choice.

property ownership rights are like any other rights; stem from the conditional agreement between the government and it's people
