It's another politicians tinkering aimlessly (and destructively) day!

It's so frustrating being a #Georgist #SingleTax advocate on a budget day. You just want to scream "stupid people" at all o them! #abolishtaxes #sharetherents #superchargetheeconomy #valueourplanet #makepovertyhistory

As long as you tax it, work won't pay anything like as well as rent seeking #abolishtaxes #sharetherents #superchargetheeconomy #makepovertyhistory #valueourplanet #makeworkpay. Our so called "leaders" are either complicit or numbskulls!

I've often found @matthewsyed's opinions interesting, but hadn't made this connection before - fullsome praise for a #LandValueTax switch and unlike many he clearly understands it: https://www.thetimes.com/comment/columnists/article/get-ready-keir-starmer-economy-poorer-poland-labour-jc06db9kt

Of course the "system is broken" - it's a feature not a bug of the way things have worked for more or less as long as there have been governments. Here's how to fix it - as explained 150 years ago:

Not nationalise. Markets are important to help determine where and how much housing there needs to be. Politicians have failed in this for decades. But once you take the land value out, and we stop paying both land rent *and* taxes on our labour, it becomes so much easier and solves a whole load more economic issues than merely the housing situation.
