The American project saw freedom as personal private property in the form of land.

A person without land is, in the American sense, unfree.

The development of capitalism has made this impossible for a growing number of people.

America is being ontologically defeated.
It is no wonder that the alienation is so severe and it feels constantly on the brink of civil war for liberals and conservatives alike.

Unfortunately, the only route to real freedom is dealing with this fundamental conflict.

A new collective ownership is the true solution.
I admire, for example, the American love for their national parks and areas of beauty.

This impulse of collective nostalgia and care must be directed to meet people's material needs, which are in antithetical conflict with the American promise of freedom.
