[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The very nature of real estate ownership is exclusionary. That’s the whole point of property rights.[/quote]

The whole point of property rights is to exclude everyone from the property except the owner? That's interesting.[/quote]
It’s actually not interesting. It’s incredibly banal. The fact that you find it interesting says a lot about your and your level of education.

Wikipedia?

"Exclusive right" is not the same as excluding people. And it's certainly not the same as excluding people from property you don't even own.[/quote]
It absolutely does mean that. E.g. You are not allowed in my house unless I invite you. You are therefore excluded. Exclusive rights to property can be both freehold and leasehold, therefore ownership is not required to exclude people. Plus and here’s the biggest catch of all, all of these rights are enforced under the force of all and state violence. If you violate my exclusive rights, both myself and the state can exact legal physical harm against you. [/quote]
