1. Not an issue ...

In the US, you are free to buy land and move wherever you please. But you do not have the right to just move there and setup shop without the property owners permission.

3. Wow. Those are very pretty rose-colored glasses you're wearing.
Your statement has never been true.

The first part of your statement is mostly true only for rich white people.
