Not to jump in for John N here, but I think this is just resultant of what was
cut off in replies... I think what he was getting at was a sense of ethical
equality, which he said is central to Libertarianism. The top bit looks like
it was cut off here... I think I had been using rights of property as an
example in my paragraph about ethical equality (see original post of mine which
John responded to)
