I should and do have the ability to force how you use your radio transmission equipment, such that you don't broadcast noise on all channels.

I should and do have the ability to force you to drive on the street and not the sidewalk and obey traffic signals.

I should and do have the ability to take some of your money to put toward the general welfare (road maintenance, public libraries, a police force) in the community we share.

I should and do have the ability to force you not to burn garbage in your back yard, blast music at all hours out of your garage, and so on.

That's kinda society in a nutshell, and it's a little surprising you're asking the question. It's rules that we generally mostly agree on--not all of us will agree on every rule, of course--that govern how we live our lives and do things with our stuff.

So it's OK if we pass a law in your town forcing you to loan your car to me when you're not using it, correct?
