So Locke thought property was other things than just soil? What else did Locke, who you referred to, include in his definition of property?

I mentioned Locke, because of his idea that property rights were the basis of all our rights, I remember his notion that by mixing one's labor with the soil an individual obtained property, a fancy way of saying that if you bought it; it's yours...and by the way, I do occasionally step away from my computer; I have a life.
