at least owning their existence within that time period. When they leave, they exist in another spacetime

        The flaw in this argument is that Beingness isn’t defined by whether or not someone is on my (or anyone else’s) property.

        Besides, land ownership is a cluster of rights (land surface, subterranean, air, etc.), none of which are owning humans. Did you know you can sell your land, but keep some rights, such as mineral rights? Crazy! And typically a functioning society has public lands like roads and forests and parks - and because of the way the market works, shops want you on their property to buy stuff.

        Is your big complaint that non-landowners (unhoused) have no place to go?

    Only if you have a sign posted, reading “All ye who enter here forfeit thine selves – body, mind, spirit, and soul – to the owner of these lands, until such time as ye leave or are slain,” with the sign carved from stone by hand, with a willowbark dagger, blessed under the light of a blood moon, approximately eight feet tall, flanked by two shrubberies – that look nice and are not too expensive – and visible to all who enter, lit eternal by the captured light of the new moon.
