4 rules to avoid all possible conflict
There are 4 rules or norms to live by in order to avoid all possible conflicts involving scarce rivalrous resources.
-
Every person is the exclusive owner of their body. (Who else has a better claim to my body than me?)
-
Every person is the private or exclusive owner of all nature given resources that he perceives as scarce and appropriates for the first time i.e. original appropriation. (Who has a better claim to the property than the original appropriator?)
-
Every person who produces a good with the help of his body and his justly appropriated property is rightfully the owner of that good or property.
-
Once a good has been originally appropriated or has been produced, ownership can only be acquired by voluntary transfer from a previous owner to a later owner.
