Chapter 14 of 19 · The Natural and Artificial Right of Property Contrasted by Thomas Hodgskin
LETTER THE EIGHTH. EVILS OF THE ARTIFICIAL RIGHT OF PROPERTY.
Not intended to go deeply into this subject.—The sufferings and crimes of the oppressed labourer overlooked. The pains and penalties suffered, by the oppressors only adverted to—Mr. Combe's description of the present state of society.—Fraud, forgery, and overtrading, all result from an artificial right of property.—No legislative remedy suggested for these evils, because legislation has no influence over natural laws.—Society a natural phenomenon.—Conclusion.
