As I said here, terribly there is a need for private property right not just but constitutionally.
Economist Thomas Sowell writes, “What property rights provide, in countries where these rights are readily accessible, is the ability of people to convert physical assets into financial assets, which is turn enables them to create additional wealth, whether individually or in combination with others. Property rights enable strangers to cooperate in economic ventures, some of which are beyond the means of any particular individual and must be undertaken by corporations which can mobilize the wealth of thousands or even millions of people, who cannot possible all know each other. Moreover, property rights provide incentives to monitor their own economic activities more closely than government officials can-and protects them from the over-reaching caprices or corruption of such officials. In short, property rights are an integral part of a price –coordinated economy, without which that economy cannot function as efficiently” (Applied Economics Thinking Beyond State One, p. 200-201).
