Nepalese people are too polite to really say what needs to be said. The reality is that those who are the least responsible for the climate changes are the ones who suffer the most from it. Not the karma expected…
In a geoist world, and even in a geo-liberal world, there would be a real ‘polluter pays’ principle. But in the neo-feudal world where we all live now, the actual people don’t control their own land anymore.

“One reason why I prefer to use #geoism over #georgism is that I dislike to have ‘isms’ or ideologies named after a specific person.”

TIL on @Wikipedia that Leo Tolstoy died of pneumonia on November 20th, 1910 in the apartment of a train station 🚂 manager during an attempt to escape from the tirades of his jealous wife. I also learned that in his last days he espoused the #economics and #philosophy of #Georgism , the “single tax movement” known currently as #Geoism. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgism
And it’s not even 5 a.m. 🙏 #Wikipedia !

This is why its for the best that a transition is made toward #LandTax based on Rental Value. Less beaurocracy, less grifty gaming, less #taxEvasion, less ridiculousness generally.

*Silently supports a #ProgressiveLandTax based on #rentalValue of the #land, because the extremely wealthy and well-connected game #profitLoss-based #taxation so they never pay taxes.*Also #incomeTax doesn't much sense, when compared to #consumption and #landTax'es
And some people just own too much land and engage in #rentseeking that drains the real #economy.

@fruechtchen
#LandTax reform now. Tax 15%-50% of the #rentalValue of the land depending on how much they own. If a person owns too much #RentalValue, including in #trusts they have two years to sell #land until they are below the threshold, or face #prison time.Watch how this solves a lot of #inequality issues.

@pzmyers
If you disapprove of extortionate #landlords, have you had a chance to read about #LandTax based on #RentalValue?Otherwise known as #Georgism or #Geoism, it was popularised a century ago by the #HenryGeorge, who wrote a very compelling book titled, #ProgressAndPoverty.
In today's world houses are not treated as #shelter, but instruments for #speculation and #taxOffsets, creating a ponzi or #pyramidScheme largely centered on #populationGrowth to constantly boost #propertyPrices.
