Already inside

Say property is settled and this chapter has nothing to add.

The body saying it is surrounded by holdings. The device. The room. The clothes. The next meal. Tonight’s bed. The account that your work has been writing into. Each is a claim some person holds against others.

Your life has run on holdings from the start. There is no neutral ground. The question of what property is is the question of the structure your own life runs through.
