> We still live in an environment where the rule "might makes right" still applies Which is correct. You have to draw the line somewhere when one civilization replaces another. What is not ok when this rule applies within a civilization - you get a class struggle when one faction uses their (political) might to acquire land with an advantage. As the parent says - land ownership as a concept is shaky and its infinite transfer over generations even more so because you tend to accumulate errors of unethically acquired land with time. What actually is fair is a continual payment for land use to the community through government for the fact that they guarantee you, but nobody else, to use the land. On Netflix you pay monthly fee for the service. Our land system is akin to purchasing an expensive perpetual Netflix license with infinite amount of transfers to your descendants through inheritance. What if you knew somebody inside Netflix and they give you this cool package somehow for very cheap? This is the situation with our land systems - they are separating social classes by design - with long time convergence to aristocratic and serf classes. |
