The problem is that too many libertarians take the precept that one&#x27;s body is sacrosanct and extrapolate it to things beyond the body. I agree that one&#x27;s body belongs to oneself and no one else, that it must not be violated by any one or any group, even in the name of a greater good. And I can agree that the fruits of one&#x27;s labor cannot also be coerced or taken away, as long as &quot;fruits of one&#x27;s labor&quot; is very strictly and narrowly defined. I agree that everyone has the &quot;right&quot; to be a selfish jerk.<p>But this does not extend much beyond your body. Certainly not to land.<p>Land is the fruit of no one&#x27;s labor. Rather, we are the fruits of it.
