WHEREAS, the Statement of Principles of The Libertarian Party explicitly
supports the right to private property ownership, including the right to do

and housing, does not require continual or personal use to exist as justly
owned property unless otherwise abandoned;


WHEREAS, these have been part of the principles of the Libertarian Party
since its inception;


THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that socialist and communist property ownership
