A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt

We are face to face with new conceptions of the relations of property to human welfare, chiefly because certain advocates of the rights of property as against the rights of men have been pushing their claims too far. The man who wrongly holds that every human right is secondary to his profit must now give way to the advocate of human welfare, who rightly maintains that every man holds his property subject to the general right of the community to regulate its use to whatever degree the public welfare may require it.

Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)
Speech (1910-08-31), “The New Nationalism,” Osawatomie, Kansas

"It's not impossible to conceive of the right to property in an emancipatory way. But there is a limit to how far the conception of this right can be expanded, since property rights are so intrinsically associated with liberalism and the market economy. Treating land as fungible and as neatly divided through fixed boundaries seldom reflects the fluid nature of Indigenous territory."

"So, the same Minister or local authority who decides they need your land for a public work will get to decide whether their decision is "reasonable". Which doesn't even pass the laugh test. It certainly doesn't seem to meet the natural justice requirements for public decision-making in the BORA, and for obvious reasons: it violates the fundamental rule that no-one should be judge in their own case."

1️⃣4️⃣ The best legal structures don’t just prevent harm—they enhance human potential. Think of:
• Property rights → Not just to prevent theft, but to enable wealth creation.
• Free speech → Not just to stop censorship, but to expand thought.
• Commerce laws → Not just to regulate, but to enable trade and innovation.

🇫🇷France's Senate has passed a 2025 budget including a controversial tax on "unproductive wealth," specifically targeting unrealized gains on assets such as Bitcoin.

The tax's application to unrealized gains sets a dangerous precedent, impacting investment and innovation. The National Assembly will now vote on this concerning proposal.

"It’s certainly true that some hives in the mid-to-late 2000s were dying off, raising the cost of pollination services for farms. In response, though, people in the agriculture industry invested more time and money into the world of beekeeping, and now we have more #bees than ever"
