I must admit I have always been torn about this. I have worked hard my whole life and because I come from a long line of farmer ,rancher, homesteaders, land has always been sought after. I have owned and sold, several parcels. Some I "used" constantly, some only once in a long while. But I can tell you if some "mutualist" would have moved onto any of those parcels, they would have regretted it.
I belong to another forum about permaculture. There are lots of folks on there who long for a piece of land. Folks who I believe would care for that land and create abundance to be shared with others. Then I look at how much land the goverment owns that could be put into production by these folks. I also see huge companies, who may or may not have bought land with ill gotten gains. For instance Gates, or the Wallmart family. Also the goverment is constanly taking land from people who cannot afford high taxes on that land, that was imposed by said government. Just seems like there are a lot of pieces to this puzzle.
