Default Re: Argh property rights debate

[ QUOTE ]
I can't agree or disagree that property is "stolen" since it comes from nature. But here's an interesting article I thought you should read about the Pilgrams, Native Americans, Thanksgiving, and property rights.

?? I dont see anything about property rights. The only thing close is the phrase "He gave each family a parcel of land", but it doesnt define "give". Did they own the land? Did they have growing rights only? Did they lease the land?

At least it wasn't some garbage about how we stole property from the Native Americans, which the linking post led me to expect.
