Why are you lot even trying to debate the notion of abolishing private property, when just three words are needed. Don't be daft.
People too greedy.

Needless to say, I simply don't accept the premise that private property is based on "oppression, theft or murder". Maybe in the 11th century, but today? Don't be daft. On the contrary, private property is one of the biggest guarantors of freedom we have. Certainly more robust than the flimsy protections provided by a universal suffrage democracy and representative government. Abolish private property and you have two options: 1. Anarchy. During periods of which oppression, theft and murder tend to thrive. 2. Some kind of collective organisation running things "on behalf of" individuals. Again, the historical precedents of this aren't good. You realise that number two is the form of government we currently have right???

I honestly think you're all completely bonkers wanting to abolish property. Quickest possible way to murderous tyranny there is!

One massive blocker for me is that the Kumar Rouge declared private property illegal. That didn't end up well. The largest genocide in history. However, it will probably be deemed 'progressive' by the sorts who think that a caliphate under ISIS is 'progressive'. Misguided fools.

Brand doesn't promote socialism, but Anarcho-syndicalism so I don't know why people are going down that particular avenue...

Including a cringeworthy performance on 'Start the Week', places on which are normally reserved for scholars or people with genuine talent (neither of which applies to Mr Brand) where he was given lots of time to discuss his book and the points contained within. It was not enough to induce me to want to read it. It sounded very lightweight, full of higgledy-piggledy bits of vaguely collectivist stuff he's picked up off the internet. I've got better things to do with my time than read 'Revolution'. I don't need to read his book. The guy is all over the media (especially the BBC which fawns over him for some reason) and has put more than enough into the public sphere for me to make my mind up. Which I have. He is a c*ck.
