Another brilliant scholar, another thick read, another fifty years. What does any of this walking and talking in the deepest parts of the economic jungle have to do with systemic poverty and inequality in America? Either we pivot to a true LVT and maybe even other aspects of Georgism or we don’t.
@AQuietNight: Yeah, and your comment reminded me of George W. Bush's response to the September 2008 financial collapse, i.e., after the fact: "In recent weeks, the federal government has taken a series of measures to help promote stability in the overall economy... Additionally, the federal government is taking several other steps to address the trouble of our financial markets... We believe that this decisive government action is needed to preserve America's financial system and sustain America's overall economy... In this difficult time, I know many Americans are wondering about the security of their finances. Every American should know that the federal government continues to enforce laws and regulations protecting your money." Funny how da guvment works.
