The right to their homesteading were already given up when they were “donated” to the city/state. There’s a large area in Pennsylvania donated to NYC that I’m thinking of, but I can’t remember what it’s called.
Are you sure that those lands weren’t stolen away from the Native Americans?
No, but if they can make claim, I will support theres over the public ownership.
Ya’ll can take whatever land you want, as long as I can homestead the southern portion of New York state. So many mountains!
First, there has never been a famine in any advanced capitalistic society. Famines only occur precisely in those nations/civilizations that are not capitalistic, i.e., do not protect property rights to a sufficient degree (ownership). Next, scarcity has nothing to do with what people need in order to sustain life. Scarcity is about what people want, what makes them happy, and no one ever has “enough happiness.” It is true that we could probably forcefully redirect all of the worlds productive efforts and scarce resources (including land) towards the production of bread and potatoes, and that this might drive down the costs of such goods to practically zero (maybe even zero). But people don’t just want bread and potatoes; they want Otoro tuna, medicine, houses, books, TVs, etc, etc. This is an undeniable fact, like the existence of gravity.
If you’re saying that people shouldn’t want such things, than that’s just your own personal, subjective, and arbitrary opinion. It has nothing to do with the real world. You might as well say that gravity should be weaker, so that individuals could effortlessly jump from one building to the next. Either way, such a proposal (redirecting all production towards bread and potatoes), if implemented, would be self-defeating (because of incentives). It will become extremely scarce, once again.
Stop listening to those idiots at TVP.
TVP = Textured Vegetable Protein?
Or am I missing something here? 
The Venus Project.
Ok, so stop the land monopolies. You mean to tell me there will be an abundance of food and no one will need to work to produce it? There’s a surplus of food because people produce it; if everyone lays down on the job, there won’t be anymore. Or do you want to say that there’s natural food sitting around? Maybe, but the supply of foods that can be eaten with no labor is quite low. Grains need processing, meat needs killing…so how exactly will you liberate us from the coercion of needing to work in order to eat?
As far as land, yes, there’s plenty, but there’s not plenty of THIS land in particular.
"RP is an anarchist??? Are you FUCKING kidding me?
Sorry kid but anarchism isn’t just hatred of the government. It also means wanting to do away with ALL hierarchal systems, such as capitalism, private property, wage labor, patriarchy, landlords, etc. When has RP ever come out against any of these other hierarchal systems?"

Except you forget tyranny of the definition of a label. LAWLS, I pissed off some leftist by saying Ron Paul is an anarchist.
