    We allow private individuals to own land and charge others for using it. That is fact, that does happen. Slavery without using shackles.

    I do not. I want imposing LVT on "all" land and leave ownership alone. But subject land to monopoly commissions etc.

    Let's face it. You want government control. Plain and simple.

    Yeah, so envy that model to the point where we add those shackles, by locking everyone onto a plantation wherever they go, letting the state be the only slave-owner.

    What is it with people who think that the solution to an evil is more of the same evil, or worse yet, state control of that evil?

    The "guests" stay inside the capital, the building. The guests do not permanently live in the hotel.

    What's more greedy: me wanting to pay for myself and opposing the government stealing from others to pay for me, or you who wants the government to steal from people at gunpoint unless they pay for other?

    Some people did envy slave owners. For sure.

    that model to the point where we add those shackles, by locking everyone onto a plantation wherever they go, letting the state be the only slave-owner.

    LVT liberates the slaves.

    No it doesn't, it simply makes us slaves to the state in a different manner.
