Although computers, and the electronic property that has been created by them have been undeniably beneficial, I can't eat or sleep under the products of a computer. I still need the basic resources to live. So while these resources are owned by others, I must work for others or starve.

GWB, if we are going to define property so broadly then yes, people do have property rights. But, at least I, am not defining property so broadly. I was limiting property to the 'means of production', and for further clarification in light of Geoffs points, 'means of producing neccesities of life'.


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
