I did not. I asked why you apparently cannot enjoy the countryside without owning the part of it you're standing on. I wonder what someone piecefully hiking through your land is taking away from you, how they diminish whatever you get out of owning it. Property rights aren't boolean, but a gradient: You can definitely grant someone the right to pass through a given area without allowing them to permanently settle the place, or go hunting. Having said this, I actually don't think the approach you take to ownership is a good one: Humans are social creatures. We benefit from sharing, and yes, that includes food, clothing, and musical instruments. Just acknowledging that we don't live in a feudal society anymore and can share some things doesn't immediately imply revoking all property rights or living in some kind of communist nightmare. Going back to your original post: You mentioned your biggest dream would be owning some property in the country that you have to yourselves exclusively. If you had easy access to nature that wasn't bound in private property, would you have as strong a desire to have your own in the first place?
