Ah, ok.

I have never met a Brit or Irish citizen who comprehends the private property rights enjoyed by Americans. I have met few Americans who understand the uniqueness of American land tenure property rights and how they were wrested in blood from Britain.

Today, American land tenure rights are under assault from the United Nations, Conservation Trusts and all government agencies. The amount of land available for commercial purchase - that is available to be owned by individuals - is diminishing rapidly. Seizure of land through eminent domain, EPA water rights power grabs, conservation trusts and government land grabs by fiat is snowballing.

It wont take two hundred years before heritable landed classes are created - with or without titles while the majority of 'citizens' remain landless renters - serfs in any other words.

While ignorance is bliss, the rich know how to stack the deck and seize power.
