Our homage to freedom is a mockery, for the blinding glare of
riches and power have made of democracy an illusion. The
consequence is life without social and economic justice and a false
view-we are chained to monetary acquisitiveness, group identities,
and other limited perspectives. Power and influence coupled with
technology, bureaucracy, and greed have masked accumulated
wisdom-the bedrock of individual integrity. Even social injustice
masked as property rights takes on a look of integrity, liberty,
and prosperity. At the root of our problems is the relation of man
to the land and his mental and physical separation from it. The
most endurable structure would be built upon the Fatherhood of God,
which the ancient Hebrews perceived as requiring the sharing among
the entire people of the divine gift of land. While land rent has
been acknowledged to be socially created, a theft by private
interests of natural resources that belong to mankind in common, is
protected and exalted as the fruit of effort and a basis of
personal rights. social criticism that recognizes that land-rent
income should be the tax base of the community and the means to
eliminate poverty. The author hopes to do something towards
overcoming a way of thinking that in the guise of defending
property rights defends privilege in its robbery of Nature, labor,
and life.
