CANTO XIX - Sweat Warm, Hands Worn
Property and property relations do not exist apart from families
and kinship relations.
Hans-Hermann Hoppe (economist/philosopher/professor)
Democracy: The God That Failed (book, 2001)
Property the purpose, or as it often seems
By erratic torn seams by enabled greed
Rather, the colloquial seeds, in custodial main
Towards common sustenance maintained
Ah, the human insistence to ameliorate
Withal, persistence to innovate, thus alleviate
To mediate and decide, to delegate and divide
By selection in mind, production so eyed
Behold, naked soul, barren born art thou
Sweat warm on brow, hands worn by plow
Effort and labor; catalytic factors concurred
Always impolitic and possession averred
The living residual as well the sieving rule
Prone to own, to loan, sell or pouch to pool
Else, all surely a ruse, arbitrarily excused
Yet thievery legally cued as polity's dues
Simply bending, branch in zephyr so flaps
Lapsing and descending, to ground as scrap
Merely unowned, as a mortal lifts then hones
Lathes and craves, into cane, tool or home
Invested so claim, infused consequentially
A priori, as well empirically, ever so causally
Or so diligently, duly the praxeological reason
Not weakened yet tactile, as passion's beacon
(prior)... Families, authority, communities, and social ranks
are the empirical-sociological concretization of the abstract
philosophical-praxeological categories and concepts of property,
production, exchange, and contract.
