The text explores the concept of consent in relation to governance and property ownership. It argues that individuals who possess any property within a government's jurisdiction implicitly consent to obey its laws. This agreement extends to all forms of possession, whether permanent or temporary. The author emphasizes that joining a community means surrendering both personal freedoms and property rights to the governing body, ensuring that all possessions are subject to its regulations. Thus, ownership is inextricably linked to adherence to the laws of the commonwealth.
