@ChrisMayLA6 @RichardJMurphy Unfortunately, what Murphy fails to recognize is the "reset" we need is #LandValueTax #LVT. The #Chartists understood this over 150 years ago, the #Georgists understood this over 100 years ago. Hell, even Winston Churchill understood this. But here we are, in 2024, rehashing the same old arguments, whilst the landed get richer and the landless get poorer.

I have never seen a man get so much right, and then fail to make the final leap, as Richard Murphy.

LRT: And yet, every time we #Georgists point out that land is still and will always be the basis of all economies, we get ridiculed. Maybe the rich know something our detractors don’t.

@kentpitman Externalities should be addressed by #Georgism. #Georgists recognize that natural resource resources and land are not the fruits of anyone's labor, so collective ownership arrangements can and should be applied to them. This can take various forms such as land value tax and various sorts of carbon-tax-like policies.
