Property Rights: As Sacred as the Laws of God

To our nation’s Founders, property rights were as sacred as the laws of God. Unfortunately, these rights have deteriorated to the point that government now practically controls all property. Property rights must be understood and restored in order to maintain freedom and avoid tyranny. Art Thompson explains the vital importance of property rights, including how our very existence as a free nation depends on them.
