<p>[QUOTE=&quot;masterswimmer, post: 25540047, member: 102022&quot;]You&#039;re reading my posted explanation for the reasons we lease our land from Uncle Sam too literally. Understandably so because I was quite emphatic with my list. However, saying we lease our land is very much a metaphor for the massive reach into our pockets, and control of our personal land use. Hell, here in NY (can&#039;t speak to other states) if your property lies within a municipal water district, and you feel they are price gouging you for water use, even if you &#039;own&#039; 100 acres, you can&#039;t drill your own well on your property. Just another government endorsed monopoly.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the United States, the only true land OWNERS are the Indian Reservations. They don&#039;t answer to the Federal Gov&#039;t. They aren&#039;t required to follow any of the land use/zoning laws we must follow. They don&#039;t pay property taxes on it. They police their own land.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>100% on the same page here. My contention that we only lease our land from .gov is not saying that it is a worse investment than gold. I&#039;ll take land every day of the week over gold. We are totally in agreement. As a matter of fact, I posted the below quote in my post #61 in this thread.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
