We often talk on this show about private property but we don't talk about it not just as a roof over your head but as the cornerstone of democracy. It's not a new idea but it found new expression in an address delivered recently to the Adam Smith Club in Melbourne by Bob Day. But he goes further: planning laws, he says, are destroying this central institution of society. There's also a link between urban planning laws and the financial turmoil gripping the world today.
