If there is enough land then everyone has a right to at least some of it sufficient that they are able to sustain themselves

First past the post cannot be contradicted (sadly)
First past the post even though it is appalling is stable because it has no logical inconsistencies... it is not logically inconsistent in the same way that a dictatorship is not logically inconsistent. (If there should be a government then fptp cannot be falsified as a concept.) We can assume that everyone thinks themselves to be right and we all think what we think is correct... otherwise we would think differently. For that reason no one would refuse to be in control of things even if they are an anarchist... they would choose to do nothing. It makes no sense not to want to be in control even if we want to do nothing and for that reason those who benefit from fptp will never rescind from their view. They cannot be beaten in argument we can only appeal to fairness and to a lack of greed. Greedy people like to be in control of things and only by realising that life is better when we are less greedy will their view change. We cannot argue a person out of their position of greed.
