Original Message
When I bought my house, I had to sign a document acknowledging that I do not own my own mineral rights for my property, here in Austin. Not that I was going to go outside with my shovel, but the rights are not sold anymore by the State of Texas, even when you buy property. That pisses me off to no end.
This REPUBLIC was supposed to protect the interests of land owners. Even when you own land, after paying all taxes, you no longer own your land as a landowner. Makes me want to light the torch and find those who put that into effect.
Even in Texas and American cannot truly own a piece of the Dream.
