I’m pretty much settled on the Jeffersonian concept of “property” as #3.
“Votes and money (taxes) are things of value we provide to them. Looking back at value, what 3rd thing of value do we have that they want/need?”
Since #3 was blank, I’m thinking there is nothing else of value to THEM. The vote and the money is IT; and the vote (power) means money.
