See, that's a good argument.
"All the land was claimed before we were born" is silly.
Well it certainly drove some discussion.
I think talking about land, some people think it's about buying a nice house or something, but really it's about being able to exist in any physical space. You're born and now you've got to be somewhere, you've got to sleep somewhere and work somewhere. If you're lucky your parents own something. If you're not you've got to pay. (Of course even owning you've got to pay tax but that's another conversation)
Everyone needs an income source and needs to pay for necessities.
Some people have income purely through inheritance and that is not fair. It's not just to do with land. "Trust fund babies" have been a thing since forever.
You're right, everyone needs to pay for necessities. Some people don't need an income source, because of inheritance.
