Or I could lean over, which would put my feet off your property, and my nostrils on the edge of your property, which would still allow me to suck the air off from your property.
Or, I could simply rent a glider or a hot air balloon, and float over your property.
- ancap 11y agoSince air molecules have fluid boundaries, and since it is a non-scarce and fungible resource, the concept of ownership of air around your property does not mean ownership of specific molecules.
- st3v3r 11y agoYup, just keep moving those goalposts.
- ancap 11y agoDon't be upset with others because you have a false and limited understanding of the subject.

- ancap 11y agoThis particular comment is far from a personal attack. The closest thing to a personal attack was my final comment to Frondo. I appreciate the reminder but for you to call out my comment and to say nothing of the numerous personal attacks directed at me in this very thread, seems more political and less enforcing the rules.
