None? I spend a week painting a Celtic knot on my hatchet handle and someone can just haul it away to Bakersfield without offering something in return? My girlfriend writes me a letter and nothing can stop the local compost bin construction committee from taking it to read aloud at their nightly meeting? The neighboring town can rip out my town's tomato field for their heliport?
I understand limiting the ability to accumulate private property beyond "personal effects" and local usufruct. But no private property at all?
