It’s only a matter of time before most people are paying rent to the government. You can’t truly own real property: if you don’t pay the taxes on it, it can be foreclosed upon. It is never truly yours.

this place is starting to get freaky.

The point stands. Either property is yours — with no strings attached — or it is not yours.

I own a stapler. So long as I can keep from being robbed and having it stolen, I own the stapler. But if you stop paying government required fees on your land and home, they will take it away from you.

It is a simple issue of property rights. By paying taxes, the government ALLOWS you some control over a piece of property that you have purchased. That is all.
