      it's a nice spring day ... so of course my neighbor is out violating the cease and desist order and doing more construction on his illegal 4,800 ft^2 steel industrial building 18' from the property line while the lawsuit against the town is still pending.

      3/ I am not in favor of zoning laws, at least not enacted top-down by governments. However, they do exist. Property exists as an enforceable right bc government exists. Sure, sure, in a David Friedman "Machinery of Freedom" society we have competing legal service providers >

      4/ but in the world we're in now, we have one legal service provider. So be it. Property is, and always has been, a basket of rights. Right to build. Right to farm. Right to grow food. Right to run a slaughterhouse. Right to minerals below.

      5/ ...and those baskets of rights have always been reconfigurable. You can peel off right to mine under your land and sell it separately from the rest of the bundle. You can sell a conservation easement to a non profit and still farm your land but no longer have right to build

      6/ And into this historical system of Anglo / Common Law, in the 19th and 20th century gov stepped and started using zoning to do the same thing. Take the right of A to build up to property line, and hand it to B, so B can forbid him, and do the same in reverse.

      7/ And given that this is the system we've had in place for 100 or 150 years, every piece of property I or you ever owned has both been encumbered with restrictions and has benefits derived from restrictions on others.

      8/ So, having purchased basket of property / rights P including { A, B, C, D, E }, it is EXCEEDINGLY libertarian to defend my rights E against encroachment.

      ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted  🇷🇺 contrarian ┴┬┴ Tāylôr Ōwĕns ΛVΛV

      9/ No, this has nothing to do with "social contract". This has to do with black letter law / a bundle of tradeable property rights. Any perception of irony really comes from a baby libertarian understanding of things, and a lack of deep study of law.https://twitter.com/anukasan1977/status/1256602944541274112 …

      No need for explanation, my friend. One can understand the role of social contracts in libertarianism, and still appreciate the inherent irony that comes with associations. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1256602101502877699 …

      In England and Wales at least it's not "black letter law", but equity, that renders restrictive covenants that ("run with the land") enforceable.pic.twitter.com/bpDkshvx1C

          Americans with libertarian sympathies have a tendency to disregard the fact that a lot of modern property law started with ad hoc exercises of monarchical prerogative powers, which developed into precedents, and continue to develop.
