“Ownership means you can sell, rent, or hypothecate an asset with no further permission”

By this definition you cannot own your home or property it’s built on. You are simply the custodian.

“It is true that the state can do all those things to your asset”

“I object to the blurring of coherent meaning”

Like the phrase “home ownership”? A phrase that lost it’s meaning decades ago, yet people believe such a thing still exists.

When another “controls” that that you possess, “ownership” as you describe is meaningless.

The real owner is the one who collects rent so that you may continue using your “possession”.

You’re right. Nobody can sell their house. Nor rent it out. It has never happened. Got it. Bye!
