I take your property all the time and you do nothing about it. A huge chuck - like 80% almost!

Do something about it. :)

I'm begging you, lock yourself up, refuse to pay taxes, shoot at the police and have them kill your useless shell. One less drain on society.

Natural rights was a pre-liberal justification of the primitive version of the liberal philosophy. It became unnecessary bunk once people realized God didn't exist and that not regulating business was just a new sort of serfdom.

Natural Rights and Real Whig Ideology were always liberal - they promoted liberty and they challenged the established order. They were the first of the liberal philosophies that came about in the 17th C. Enlightenment. Within a century, the American colonists were struggling to conserve these ideals under which they lived and subscribed to.

And go ahead and regulate corporations: they belong to the paying public, and are not individuals. LLCs and the like are a different matter, although they do employ individuals with Natural Rights of their own.

John Stuart Mill was one of the first liberals to realize how weak a defense natural rights were. Where do natural rights come from? From physics? Why would physics care? John Stuart Mill instead said that freedom was simply the most efficient way to organize society, and he used logic to prove this, rather than referring people to his deity.

He was a utilitarian, which means fascist. He was not concerned with liberty, so he is irrelevant to Americans.
