A Step Against Land Value Tax
_ pyradius1y20

I am glad that you have discovered Georgism by way of Lars' article. The article has indeed received a lot of attention! I would suggest familiarizing oneself with the extensive literature from generations of economists on the subject whether they are 'Georgists' (i.e. Harry Gunnison Brown, William Vickrey, Mason Gaffney, Fred Foldvary, Nic Tideman, Terry Dwyer) or not (i.e. Pigou/Ramsey on optimal taxation, Hotelling, learning about 'tax capitalization', etc.

A couple pieces in particular that I find valuable, "Taxation: The Lost History" - https://cooperative-individualism.org/dwyer-terence_taxation-the-lost-history-2014-oct.pdf, "Land as a Distinctive Factor of Production" - https://paulbeard.org/files/wealthandwant.com/docs/Gaffney_LaaDFoP.html or "The Philosophy of Public Finance" - https://www.masongaffney.org/publications/G44Philosophy_of_Public_Finance.CV.pdf
