Part of me can't believe I'm discussing the abstract philosophical justifications of ownership and theft! Is this really so hard to understand in a civilized world today? How do you think we became a civilized world? By setting agreements to behave like civilized people, so we could all trust each other, cooperate, and make a world that isn't run by marauding huns.
Looking for ways to strip those agreements away, thread by thread, is not helping! Once the cloth unravels, it'll take Hell to put it back together again.
Sorry. Shouldn't have skipped lunch. I'm going home.
