Default Re: Property and water rights?

I'm not denying that property rights are necessary and fair (up to a point). I'm denying that they're absolute. They exist within a framework of balancing the common good, justice, and personal freedom.

Rights to the integrity of your body, on the other hand, are generally thought of as absolute.
