I think that private property can be easily derived from individual rights. The right to control my own life, the right to do what I want, the right not to be interfered with. Those set a pretty strong precedent for private property. If I create something out of nothing, shouldn't I be able to keep that?
I could be down with taxation if someone actually offered me a contract to join the USA with all the provisions. But they didn't, they just implicitly assumed it, without my consent.

- intended 9y agoWhy would I care about individual rights if there is no government ? I mean if I have enough power and there’s no one to stop me, I may as well take your property AND your person and make you work for me. It’s just a matter of who has the most guns, and my willingness to cheat on the rules of the game.(you assume individual rights, I don’t) Do note this is more of a tongue in cheek question, than a serious one.
