We should not forget even for a moment that this whole animate world is a large family in which nature has not assigned any proprety to any particular individual. Individual ownership has been created by selfish opportunists so that they might take advantage of the defects of this system in order to grow fatter in a parasitic way. When the whole proprety of this universe has been inherited by all creatures, how then can there be any justifictation for a system in which someone receives a flow of huge excess, while others die for a lack of a handful of grain.
