    Capitalism is defined by private ownership. Be it corporations or rich individuals, the underlying issue is the ownership.

    I am not calling to abolish all concepts of ownership, only what we call ‘private property’. I am in favour of personal property.

      I might have to agree with that other commenter that maybe new terms are needed just for clarity of communication, at least with those outside the movement.

      In my mind, personal property would be a subset of private property so getting rid of the larger set necessarily includes the subset.

      So personal property as you’re using it presumably has a maximum allowable level? Or just as long as it’s for your personal use? No rental houses for example, but a vacation home would be ok?
