My point was that it's not clearly defined - not necessarily to get your opinion on the two examples. But anyway, that's such black and white view that it's close to dogmatism. I reckon I would be wasting my time if I'd

Why is that? For example: a number of libertarians would say that the government is stealing a part of their income. I wouldn't. And on opposite side one could argue that the owner(s) are stealing a part of the workers income.

Why can't you come to terms with the obvious difference between those kinds of property? For some reasons it's basically impossible to get a straight answer from a property advocate on this. It's not the same in any moral sen

That holds true for possessions, but not private-property. I think it's necessary to recognize the difference between private-property (e.g land, industry etc) and possesions (e.g one's house, car etc.). I'm familiar with the

Of course. I agree with you, hence the "Today" in the last sentence. Tomorrow it might be other kinds of states or similar entities. The first sentence was however badly formulated. So it's true that a stateless society would

Is your point that private-property is in line with how people naturally behave? I'm not really sure what is meant by rights. It's surely so subjective that it loses it's purpose.

I would say that the enforcement of private property is what requires the top-down approach. Not the abolishment of private property. e.g: If I would build my house at someones former vast private property (land). The property owner would s

One could argue that it's at least a bit of cherry-picking. Furthermore I would not agree with the statement that those incidents is a major contributor to the stigmatization of the political left - the socialist. That I would think

I believe that if people feel they can make a difference, people will get involved. If generally people can't make a difference, like today, people get apathetic.

My point is that raising people out of poverty should not be used as a measurement of a systems viability and success. As such, the unfair state-capitalism of China should not be praised as a viable system of the future just because it succ
