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.
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.
Thats a very propertarian view of a non-propertarian issue. You have what you use. What you don’t, you don’t. If you leave your house vacant for too long a period of time, then somebody might take up residence. But if people don’t just move into your home while you’re on vacation now, why would they in a hypothetical system where the concept of property is radically different and presumably everybody has a home? Unless you’re talking about second homes? Because that’s a non starter. Nobody needs more than one home.

Nor did I say there was.
The time has nothing to do with this.
