 One of the strongest defenses of Tully’s position is presented by Sreenivasan (1995). He argues that Locke’s repetitious use of “enough and as good” indicates that the phrase is doing some real work in the argument. In particular, it is the only way Locke can be thought to have provided some solution to the fact that the consent of all is needed to justify appropriation in the state of nature. If others are not harmed, they have no grounds to object and can be thought to consent, whereas if they are harmed, it is implausible to think of them as consenting. Sreenivasan does depart from Tully in some important respects. He takes “enough and as good” to mean “enough and as good opportunity for securing one’s preservation,” not “enough and as good of the same commodity (such as land).” This has the advantage of making Locke’s account of property less radical since it does not claim that Locke thought the point of his theory was to show that all original property rights were invalid at the point where political communities were created. The disadvantage of this interpretation, as Sreenivasan admits, is that it saddles Locke with a flawed argument. Those who merely have the opportunity to labor for others at subsistence wages no longer have the liberty that individuals had before scarcity to benefit from the full surplus of value they create. Moreover, poor laborers no longer enjoy equality of access to the materials from which products can be made. Sreenivasan thinks that Locke’s theory is thus unable to solve the problem of how individuals can obtain individual property rights in what is initially owned by all people without consent.
