But so what? If you start to reject the concept of ownership, you may as well go one more step deeper, and realize that it is only held by the government via threat of force. Unless you are advocating for staging a revolution, you may as well just be a willing participant in society. You could even run for you local city council and become part of the decision making process for the government, being an active participant in it.

This is the only way to ensure your goals or objectives are realized; constant vigilance.

Even basic ownership of small objects comes through force. Otherwise you'd drop them.

Cute, but where would you draw the line?

"You see, the government owns your car too, because you're driving on roads built by the government"

"Oh but you see, clearly, based on the government deciding under what conditions you're allowed to leave the country, the government owns your body too, and is therefore within its rights to torture and kill you on a whim."

Do you really see no problem at all with the idea that governments own everything and are just graciously "renting" things to us?

Do you sincerely see nothing as your own legitimate property? When you buy a new phone, is that actually the government's property instead of yours?
