That was an interesting story. I had no idea why the fundamental legal shift in private property rights occurred. It seems to have happened just around the time that the civil war in the US was inevitable. It's sad to think that it is a result of the state wanting more power to decide who does what. Or at least that was my take on it.

    But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case it is unfit to exist.

    My belief is that if we can somehow restore private property without relying on government, I think that will simultaneously fix the environment.
