Episode 18: Finders Keepers

Ahoy, crew! I was walking on the beach and I found something! A beautiful shiny shell! Nobody was there. Nobody owned it. I FOUND it! It's mine! Finders keepers! But then a captain walked over and said: "Give that to me. I'll share it with everyone. It's only fair!" Wait—did HE find it? No! Was HE looking for shells? No! Did HE do ANY of the work? NO! He was just sitting there! I'M the one who walked. I'M the one who looked. I'M the one who found it! So why should HE get to decide what happens to YOUR shell? I said "But I found it!" And he said: "Don't be selfish." Oh, the old "selfish" trick! YOU do the work. THEY want it. And YOU'RE the bad guy? Nope! Liberty Lesson: If nobody owns something and YOU find it—it's YOURS! You did the work. You get to keep it! Jab: If you find a cool rock, it's yours! If you pick a flower, it's yours! Finder did the finding! He did NOTHING and wants MY shell. THAT'S not fair! Quest: Ask your family: If I find something nobody owns, whose is it? What makes something MINE? Finders keepers! Liberty Pirates earn their treasure! #LibertyPirates #FindersKeepers #EarnYourTreasure
