Here's one the great statements defending individual property rights -

"The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the force of the Crown. It may be frail; its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storms may enter, the rain may enter--but the King of England cannot enter; all his forces dare not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement."

William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, in a 1763 speech to the House of Lords

What a shame that Earl Pitt's words do not resonate with far too many FReepers.

Thank you for the reminder of that quote.
