    Now we have a few famines in history to show us how gaining favor in a political system is not the best way to manage the land.

    Doesn’t that also mean The Irish famine shows private land ownership isn’t the best way to manage land?

      The potato famine was caused by a new type of blight being brought from the Americas back to Europe.

      I don’t see how being beaten by a novel disease has anything to do with private land ownership.
