LIBERTARIANS: OK. Let me help out on this issue of Property Rights:

Property isn’t the only ‘right’. It’s that all ‘rights’ can be expressed as property rights. If all rights are expressed as property rights, then the voluntary and involuntary transfers are made visible and open to rational analysis, articulation and debate. Expressing all rights as property rights helps us articulate the actual transfers – voluntary and involuntary – inherent in moral arguments. It helps us avoid the conflict of visions inherent in moral arguments, which are, by their very nature, inarticulate ‘folk speech’.

So, please try not to confuse the peasants too much. They get agitated, unruly, and even more irrational. We’re supposed to be the smart ones. OK?
