no landownership also invokes properties of community establishment and development. Squatters can be removed - if you remove a landowner (in theory) you have and entire community to address.

you guys really dont see it do you
land ownership means land
land means earth
earth means crops
crops mean food and all sorts of resources.
Im not talking about mansions people Im talking about villages and communes and farms; owning land that can nourish you- not just a lot that you can invest in.
