> For most of our history humans did not have to pay for a piece of land to put up some yurt or hut and live there.

In those same times, anyone that wandered by who was stronger could simply kill them and take over the yurt, until someone stronger showed and killed them in turn.

Not a great way to live, and not a very long life.

How is that different to the current society, except that now if you put up a yurt somewhere you will get harassed by police?
