"人間の能力の多様性から財産権が生じるがそれは利益の一致への克服できない障害に他ならない。"
— James Madison
Simplified Meaning:
People have different skills and talents, which lead to owning different kinds of property and wealth. Because everyone has unique abilities, it's impossible for everyone to want or need the same things in life. For example, one person might be great at farming and own a lot of land, while another is a skilled artist and has valuable paintings. These differences mean they have different interests and goals. Because of this variety, it's unrealistic to expect that everyone's desires and priorities will align perfectly. Understanding this can help us accept that people will always have different perspectives and needs.
