Of course current citizens get one. They own the place already. They would just formalize and individualize their ownership. All existing citizens would get one. People who don't exist would have to inherit, be gifted, or buy. Children already born would get one when they turn 25. No breeding to get more. Somebody born later has to inherit one or buy or and otherwise is a second class person. This is like the good old days when there were Lords of the Manor, landed gentry and serfs who had to survive by working for the citizenry. That is a big problem when breeding is continuing apace as eventually the mob just has a revolution and there's a huge civil war and the system gets redone like Mao's Maelstrom when the state simply confiscates everything. But with modern people, birthrates are low with populations actually falling, so that problem goes away. There would be some serious constitutional issues to be dealt with as people are like monkeys and don't obey rules very well if at all. The non-citizens would be doing the tax paying. The citizens would do the voting and collect the dividends of citizenship. Foreign workers would do the work and pay the taxes. The citizens would not vote for the useless politicians who are now in existence. That's not far off how it works now. Foreign workers don't get a vote but pay the taxes [like our daughter and her husband in London, England]. Same as us in Canada, Belgium, England. Same as son in Japan. We can't have children as "anchor babies" and take over. But we used to be able to so the family owns Canada [one member does and we [the parents] are entitled to live there but are not citizens, yet]. The big difference is being able to sell the citizenship. That's the fundamental property right which is missing. In most other respects of the modern world, individual property rights have become normal. Mqurice
