I don't think the moral of the story for Americans living in 2023 is that we should close monasteries or seize church land, but it is evidence that treating land as a more "normal" commodity can have large economic benefits. https://t.co/BU5gGfN9Xf — PolitiTweet.org

During the French Revolution, similarly, church land was seized and sold off to commerce-minded investors — riches ensued. https://t.co/BU5gGfMC7H https://t.co/OPYjdHguAr — PolitiTweet.org

What would normalizing land entail? — Regulate for safety & pollution, don't mandate sameness/"community character." — Maximize rights over your own property, not your neighbors' property; individual not community control. https://t.co/BU5gGfMC7H — PolitiTweet.org
