I disagree. I have the RIGHT to PURSUE ownership of property. Ownership requires the ability to be able to afford the purchase, and the responsibility to pay for any charges resulting from said purchase. What people do NOT have a right to is the public paying for my RIGHT to PURSUE ownership.

You have the right to PURSUE property. But the government has no obligation to ensure you get it.
Thank you.

I disagree. I have the RIGHT to PURSUE ownership of property.I think the original Life, Liberty and Property statement was changed because slaves were property, and they did not want to appear to endorse slavery. Or so I have read somewhere, sounds logical though.
They missed the boat however since we can never truly own property as long as they can tax it, or condemn it.
