John and Simon,

Both of you made great posts! Thanks.. I really enjoyed reading them.

I think my response to Simon is that if we had a Utopian society where people were honest and all people worked as hard as they personally could to do their fair share, then the idea of property would be far less relevant. I just don't expect we'll ever have that scenario. And without it, unless you're willing to give up rights to any possessions (your house, car.. families food.. everything) you have to have some type of protections for the things that productive people create and earn. So though I like what you have to say, I still don't know that it can apply in today's society.

And John, thanks for the most simple and straight forward explanation of ownership I've read!

Brian
