It’s no secret today that every piece of land in the inhabitable world is owned. Owned by some guy or some nation. Owned by people that think it’s perfectly okay to own a piece of the Earth. You know that now there’s this guy that actually claimed the moon and sells spaces on it to celebrities? Apparently, this trend has even stretched into space. When can I get an apartment on Jupiter? Somewhere near that Great Red Spot. $500 a month? Okay. But I can’t live there. I’ll just use it for storage. All my knicknacks and extra crap will go to Jupiter. Just because someone says they own something and have a piece of paper that says they own it, does that mean they actually own it? Property is theft. Any way you look at it, it’s theft. Ownership of anything is theft. Everything in front of you was stolen. Every home and piece of land you see was stolen.
I would have to say the contrary when it comes to ownership. Instead of people owning the land, I say the land owns the people. Before humans, animals didn’t have any concept of property that was owned and kept embarassingly sterile because the housing development you live in wants every house to look the same. The land was free for the living. Not for the taking because no other animal sees themselves as owning land. Sure, they may think they mark their territory, but there are no laws in place that stop another animal from taking over that land and living there. Everything was wide open. Even the Native Americans could not conceive that someone could own a piece of land.
I think the reason people want to own land is because it makes them feel powerful. Or at least more powerful than before. “Yes, that’s MY piece of land right there. It belongs to ME.” It belongs to the Earth and the Earth belongs to the universe. The idea of property is to keep people in the broken system we have now. If people could just go anywhere and build a shelter, they wouldn’t have to pay rent or mortgage every month. If people could just take land and grow their own food, they wouldn’t have to spend money at the supermarket. By having the entire world owned, they keep an entire generation captive in unfulfilling jobs because they have no other choice but to starve and freeze on the streets. Most of these jobs are damaging to the planet and humanity as a whole. Extraction of resources, depletion of topsoil, pollution of rivers and oceans. Most of the corporations in the world contribute to these atrocities. It’s either destroy the Earth or die on the streets. Of course, this isn’t true for everyone, but the majority of people have no choice.
Even a writer or an attorney contributes to the clear-cutting of forests when they use paper products. Deplete the Earth to survive. That should be our mantra. We have no choice because we’re not allowed to occupy any physical space unless we help in this cause. This is how most people are forced to be. A system that depends on destroying its environment is doomed to failure, and yet people can’t just stop because they would lose their “property.” We have the ability to create heaven on Earth if we could just get past some of these ridiculous laws that keep us in this system. Even the Founding Fathers were this way. Rich, white, property-owning men who believed their class was the only one who should be able to vote. How enlightened…
At this point, I feel that resistance is futile because not enough people are willing to put an end to this system we live in. We know in our bones that it’s wrong and yet we keep going on, day after day, with an almost zombie-like apathy, waiting for our time to die and finally get out of this hell world. Our leaders are satanic for the most part and do whatever they want with no regard for the law, while the people below them are put under harsh punishments for the same crimes. Power does what it wants and gets away with it. And they have this power because they own things. They own land. They own oil. They own whatever it is that other people need or want to get their hands on. And they use propaganda and other manipulation tactics to keep things that way.
How can people be woken up from this stupor and start moving towards a better world, a world we can all feel good about? We could show them what really goes on in the world through independent media, but they won’t believe you because it’s too fringe. If it’s not on television or in a newspaper, it isn’t true. All the things that don’t get out are usually the most important things. If you haven’t heard, the USA, Canada, and Mexico signed the NAU agreement, making these three countries into one. You didn’t hear this on CNN or Fox News. The reason the most powerful people in the world want a one-world government is because they would OWN EVERYTHING. Every piece of land in the entire world would belong to them. They could control every action in the entire world.
I have an alternative here. How about a no world government? How about a world where we don’t need laws and we just get along and work together? We use community and cooperation to get things done that actually matter. We’ll have no need for accountants and bankers because we will be in so much abundance that we’ll never know scarcity. The Earth was once an abundant place full of life. These owners are the ones that have destroyed much of that aliveness. I would say that to own is to destroy, but it’s not absolutely true. But it’s close enough. Let’s drop the facade of ownership and start living like we are supposed to. Like we used to. The way our bodies and biology intended. Once we get the hang of it, it won’t be so hard, it will be natural.
