Jefferson."

From the book:
"...He understands, too, that land
monopoly has a blighting effect on the people in civilized society.
'In reviewing history,' he says, 'we perceive that in the primitive
state all land is comparatively free and afforded by the Creator for
the use of men, to labor and live on. Whereas with the encroachment
of organized civilized people -- the free land is ruthlessly seized
from the native inhabitants and direct ownership claimed by the
invading Government. After this aggrandizement, sabotage occurs, and
all the fertile land and the wate rrights thereof are parceled out
to governmental favorites, who promptly force the native inhabitants
into slavery by demanding tribute for occupancy thereof.' And he
goes on to urge a proper solution..." |
