Quote by: SoylentGreen  The rights of others to own property is a subjective value made by people who live with a certain philosophical belief in property. |
How do people decide who owns property and how it is distributed? What is the authoritative entity who ultimately decides?
Quote:
Born at another time or another place and the philosophical outlook would be completely different.
The right exists only if someone personally believes in that right not because it is a natural or universal right.

Yes, and? This does not get around the fact that the means of production are either privately owned, socially owned, or state owned. I am including labor as a means of production. The default position is that you privately own your labor since to validate social or state ownership would require voluntary agreement. Otherwise, society or the state is committing coercion.
