	Compensating Local Governments for Loss of Tax Base Due to State Ownership of Land
		Some states such as Colorado begin to compensate local governments once a very low threshold of state ownership is reached (in this case, one-tenth of one percent of the area of the county).
		Reforestation areas throughout the state were made taxable in 1932, and lands in specified municipalities that were occupied by certain state institutions, primarily prisons and hospitals, were made taxable in various years, from 1898 to 1961.
		State prisons and some private colleges, for example, provide their own security, but under this law they could be liable for charges relating to municipal police protection.

	State Policy on Navigablilty
		June 18,1996 State ownership of the beds of navigable waters is an inherent attribute of state sovereignty protected by the United States Constitution.
		In this administrative appeal, the State of Alaska and Doyon Limited, an ANCSA regional corporation, successfully established that the use or susceptibility of use of a river or stream by an 18-24 foot wooden riverboat capable of carrying at least 1,000 pounds of gear or supplies is sufficient to establish navigability.
		The state claimed that the extensive use of floatplanes on Slopbucket Lake, a twenty acre lake adjacent to Lake Iliamna, was sufficient to establish navigability.

	CREATIVE DESTRUCTION IN EMERGING MARKETS:
		In the context of the recent, globally pervasive institutional innovation of telecommunications enterprise (“telecoms”) privatization, transfer of ownership and control from state to private hands induces change in incentives and behaviors, though the short- to medium-term performance implications of that change for shareholders are in dispute.
		The percentage of state ownership in a privatizing enterprise may tend, therefore, to be positively related, or at least, less negatively related to enterprise performance compared to the mainstream view.
		With retention of substantial state ownership (but with effective control in the hands of enterprise managers), the state would communicate to anxious private shareholders an intent to share in their economic fate and, thus, ensure minimal enterprise performance standards.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Socialism
		State control and even state ownership are not necessarily Socialism: they become so only when they result in or tend towards the prohibition of private ownership not only of "natural monopolies", but also of all the sources of wealth.
		The State was never meant to appropriate to itself the main parental duties, it was rather meant to provide the parents, especially poor parents, with a wider, freer, healthier family sphere in which to be properly parental.
		It is true that the institutions of religion, of the family, and of private ownership are liable to great abuses, but the perfection of human effort and character demands a freedom of choice between good and evil as their first necessary condition.

		Some experts say immediate privatization is not realistic because most Chinese households are relatively poor and the sale of bank shares would result in a large number of owners who would find it difficult to exercise control over the institutions.
