property & criminality

[Fellows, Jeffrey]

Labor, or labor power, is an intangible form of property recognized by
the Supreme Court, well at least past Courts. Unfortunately, I don't
think the "takings" type laws used by landowners can be, or have been,
used to argue that structural unemployment and underemployment
constitute takings of one's property without permission or compensation.
