Ah, Identity Politics.
Should a member of the LGBQT community be able to collect land rent from another member of the LGBQT community for use of the Earth? And should a member of the _________ community be able to collect land rent from another member of the _________ community for use of the Earth?

And how much more a farce, then, is it for a white hetero male to collect land rent from any Identity Group member? Rent for mere access to place (what Realtors mean by "location, location, location")? Not for the building value, but for the earth site value? In other words, "Whose planet is this?"

ALL are welcome to break bread (and vegetarian fare) with The Commons SF this evening at their clubhouse in Bernal, and to discuss the peculiar institution of privatized land rent, and how that institution specially molds and prevents white liberation from racist economic patterns of thought.
