I mean you own your life, right? To deny that means you are a slave to someone else. To deny it means “others” own your life and can do what they want with it. And if you own your life and need to sustain your life, do you not need to make a claim to justly acquired property so that you can live? If you cannot make a claim to justly acquired property then how can you feed yourself? If you can only acquire what “others” say you can acquire, how are you not a slave to them? How is this not a violation of your property rights and your self-ownership?
