[Mark was here]

I do not believe ones rights are as quickly trashed as you do.

Say the Pete and Joe have property rights as individuals, now does God take their rights away if they work together on a project?

I say no.

"Say the Pete and Joe have property rights as individuals, now does God take their rights away if they work together on a project?"

What the Constitution says is that the right to OWN property is protected--not how it is/was gotten. That is your fundamental error. All business law is a legal fiction subject to change by changing the law---not in the same class as the inherent rights---just like patents and copyrights.

"I say no."

And you're wrong.
