[MD] Capitalism: A Question of Morality

[Ron Kulp]

Working for a civil engineering company, the waters are usually
controlled by the federal government. Land management is a question of
township ordinances put in place for this very reason.

Dan,
IMHO: if I own land with water running through it to your land, I
shouldn't dam it, totally consume it, or pollute it before it gets to
you.  Land should be treated as such a natural resource also.  On one
end of the spectrum, residential land should be kept so that it is
suitable for living for the next owner.  At the other end, if I own
mineral rights, we should expect the value of those mineral rights to
reach zero when the minerals are depleted.  Topsoil or farmland is in
between.  There will be some wear & tear, but there should be proper
land management to extend the fertility as long as possible.
As for loyalty, it is to everyone's benefit to put it in writing, for
instance in the form of a lease option.
