III. Immoveables
II Nature of the case
§ immoveables

Radicalism not

Of the 12 millions of lots, some then would be, of at
present Time: the same is thus ample, unquestionably. But on the other hand there are others , many of
what taken together would not compose a mass of property ill
any thing a mass of property sufficient for the purchase of so much as a single
meal. And of these there would than unfortunately be hundreds of thousands thousands. to go no
further: which the rich ones abovementioned would scarcely be to be reckoned
by hundreds.

15
For contra: to many
times the content,
it would not yield
a single meal: for
hundreds thus inserted
hundreds of thousands
would be starved

16
Hence to quantity
must be substituted
value.

The sample of coming at equally division by rule and compass being
thus inapplicable — , giving equally not in effect but only in
name — such giving to hundreds of thousands under the name of perpetually competent subsistence
immediate starvation and death — to quantity we are
most this perforce substitute value.

17
Value not so easy
for as a poment
Ask Adam Smith
and Ricardo doc.

18
Yet on pain of death
to the hundreds of those
sand: value of each
lot must have been
pronounced by Valuing
Valuers.

19
Valuers thecompetent and
willing, in competent
where findable?
Competent in probity
and talent? paid or
unpaid? if paid, where
to pay those, and with
what? If imposed how
which working, not that
to be kept and
when and what the
worth of their service

suffice to engage than
voluntary and contented
server? or, if this can
not be done, are they
to be forced, and by
what means are they to
be forced! and while working under the force by what means are they to be kept alive? |
