   Society and civilization was founded on the principle of, if it's free,   
   then it's yours. "You can pick all the fruit from the entire garden.   
   Then, you can retire to your place." - God   
      
   We already went through this with the Diggers back in 1968. Look what   
   happened to them.   
      
   Almost all nations engage in some form of global trade, a few countries   
   officially operate under non-capitalist, socialist-oriented systems that   
   restrict private ownership in favor of state control.
