So owning land does not give you any special priv. with
the land.

No, owning land does not (or should not) give you any special priviges.
Period. Owning anything gives you some privilages (but not complete
privilages) over the item in question. Nothing special about land IMHO.

However, what we are
talking about is people coming along after you bought the land

That's part of the rules you agreed to when you bought the land. "We
can change these rules without giving you notice" is a common clause in
financial contracts; do you think that you have no financial rights at
all? Is that stealing?

If the necessary restriction did not exist...

What did exist was a body of law, which is relied upon by other
landowners, that protects their rights.

Not everything can be reduced to money. That is the classic fallacy of
libertarians (who have a point, but do not have the answer)

Well, I suppose it is unfair to own property and not get to vote on how
the property taxes are spent. But that is the price of democarcy, one
man, one vote concept. I guess the idea is that it is better than any
other system around, even though it is not perfect.

I don't think that is a quality of democarcy, its just our current
implementation. Originally, only property owners were allowed to vote
in the U.S. The reasoning was those where the guys paying the taxes.
I'm not saying that is how we should do it but it certainly seems
unfair when property owners cannot vote.
