Yes, you have misinterpreted my position. I'm not opposed to private property. I love having stuff. Stuff is some of my favorite things to have, truth be told.

I'm opposed to hoarding, and I'm opposed to exploitation.

If the farmer wants to farm the land and sell the food, I'm all for that. If the land owner wants to have the farmer farm the land, then take all the money from the farmer selling it, keep most of it and pay the farmer just enough to get by, I think that instead the farmer should get that money.

When your contribution to the process is "I have stuff, so you should give me more", then I question why you're needed for the system to function.
