Line 27:
Line 27: − + − == Enemies of private property == − − ''In this sense, the theory of the Communists may be summed up in the single sentence: Abolition of private property.'' − The Communist Manifesto − − [[Communism]] and its cousin Socialism, abolish absolute ownership of land, houses, tools, and chattels by private individuals. In its place, qualified ownership of all things by the Collective is instituted. Thus no one can own themselves, their labor, the fruits of that labor, nor even the children they beget. − − Collectivists are more akin to pirates, stealing private property from the rightful owners, while ascribing a moral superiority to their thievery. Since moral religions denounce thievery, it's not surprising that Collectivists abhor religion. − − − == Friends of private property == − − '''CAPITALISM''' - An economic system in which the means of production, distribution and exchange are privately owned and operated for private profit. ''Webster's Dictionary'' − − Concatenating that with private property, we get: ''Capitalism is an economic system in which individuals absolutely own the means of production, distribution, and exchange.'' − − A farmer who absolutely owns his farm is a capitalist. − A farmer who does not is a tenant.

It is often assumed that all land is real estate. But estate refers to qualified ownership, and not absolute ownership. Land is one thing, an estate in land is another. Estate is an interest in property that is less than title. Thus a "title deed" to estate is not title, but qualified ownership, a temporary or limited possession of the real estate.

Since absolute ownership is a right, not a privilege, no American government has the delegated power to tax private property. All constitutional delegations of taxing authority are limited to real and personal property (i.e., estate).
