I believe the posession of property is a priv. to be taken away if abused. There is no such thing as a 'right' to property--in fact the very notion seems absurd.

In what sense do you believe I am given a "privelige" to own what I do. Your very attitude implies some form of statism, in that you believe some higher authority has the right to remove that which I lawfully accumulated, this is the position taken by those who support the idea of taxation etc. Explain further, if you will, what you mean by this being a privelige. In what cases do you believe I do not have the right to retain my property?
