You've got it backwards. Private property rights are granted by the constitution. If someone works hard, builds a business, saves money, invests, etc.... to aquire land that isn't a privilege. Paying a few bucks to have access to thousands of acres of land that is available because it is largely being subsidized by other people who don't hunt that property is a privilege. The guy hunting private not only paid for the "right" to hunt his own place, but has also contributed fees and tax money to give you the privilege to hunt the pubic land.

It takes time to save, earn and invest. A LOT of people fall into that middle tier where they want to buy land, but are not financially able to.
