“Tax systems are essentially the mechanisms by which societies decide what people have to share with each other versus what they can keep for themselves.
Instead of taxing production and consumption, we can simply capture land value instead. Maxim: Keep what you earn, pay for what you use.
In such a system, employees, consumers, business owners, business investors, homeowners, farmers and even retirees would be better off. Only those who use land inefficiently or seek to profit from it directly would lose - land speculators, banks, mining companies, extractive industries.”
