So by your standards, my "squatting" in your beach house without your knowledge is not "wrong" as long as it doesn't deprive you of income.

Well, what harm has been caused? Why, in fact, is this act wrong?
___

No tangible harm to you, the homeowner, in my example. Your property's not damaged and you've lost no income. Are you asking me why I think it's wrong or why it's wrong in the eyes of the law? I think the concept of property rights is pretty meaningless if a landowner has no recourse against a squatter.

Is it correct to say that YOU don't think it's wrong? If so, let's say you find out I'm chilling at your beach house. It's January, and you don't have any renters scheduled for the next four months. Do you think you should have recourse to the courts or the police to eject me? Or in your anarcholibertarian dream society would we just shoot it out? ;)
