September 17


The individual ownership of large areas of land is as unjust as the ownership of other people.

 

You cannot say that the existing laws regarding the possession of land are lawful. Violence, crime, and power are their source in these laws.

— Herbert Spencer

 

Private ownership of land came to be, not out of any natural relationships between people, but through robbery.

— Henry George

 

The injustice of owning big pieces of land as private property, like any other injustice, is necessarily linked with many other injustices which are used to protect it.
