The Zimbabwean government is set to nationalize all private property, essentially, all land would be considered leased from the government. This comes after a few white farmers won court cases after their land was seized, saying that the seizure was against private property laws. If this goes through, any and all land can be seized by the government no matter what. The reason I say that this will farther destroy the economy is because there a strong correlation between protection of private property rights and economic growth. Why build a successful business if at a moments notice, the government could nationalize it and not compensate you for it?
