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.

#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.

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.
