    You’re making up a rule that isn’t a part of the definition of personal property.

    Your home is still the place you live at even if you’re not currently in it. You address doesn’t change the moment you step out of your house does it? You use it by it being your place of residence, and that happens at all times.

      I didn’t make anything up. There was no time component specified by which ownership is kept or lost. I would hazard a bet many of you strongly support squatters rights which are directly related to this yet not accounted for by the stated definitions. This is one of the prime cruxes of the private property argument is the ability for some to own property they don’t occupy all the time.

        Nor did I say there was.

        The time has nothing to do with this.

          It absolutely does. Can I just own a home and go off around the world and lock it down preventing all others from drawing value from it for years even decades of time. If not how much time must pass before it’s too much time. You want to say a day is fine so someone can go to work. What about 2 or 3 days. What about a week, a couple of months. Can I own one under my own name and my wife under hers and my kids separately under each of their own. What about a trust or some other financial vehicle, what exactly constitutes ownership.
