> Land ownership should never be perpetual. It should be time limited.
Ownership of anything by a person is already time limited - limited to a human lifetime.
> If land is properly allocated to everyone
Let’s imagine every person in the world should have an equal holding of arable land (ignores lots of other factors, but whatever!). Assuming 8 billion people and 1.6 billion hectares of arable land, works out to 5 people per hectare.
To be fair, USA needs to a double its population (≈ 2.3 times to 760 million). New Zealand needs to approximately halve it’s population.
For other countries, find your arable land figure (it is in Hectares, left most column of main table is 2016 figure) from https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/arable-la... and multiple by 5 to get the fair population and compare that with the actual population.
