    "No Lords, No Masters, Level the Land" as good a slogan now as it was in the 1640s

      Year 1640. 200 years before Marx.

      "Marx"? "200 years before Marx."? W.t.f./W.t.h.?‽ You forgot 200 years before Proudhon, also 1848. And Tom Paine, "Agrarian Justice", calling for a Land Tax, "[the landowner] owes a ground rent to the community", in the 1770s; in the intervening century.

    I saw him in concert in Torino when I was a teenager. 40 years later still bring me emotions to tears.
    By the way, that night on stage for the last couple of songs, Wilco come on stage to sing along with him.

      Private property is different to personal property. To use homes as a simple example personal property is your own home, private property is if you owned another home and profited simply from owning it and renting it out to people who need it. When you hear 'the sin of property' in this song, its condemning private, not personal property.
