Modern Labour do not like tSnowden, but the first Labour chancellor he had one quality his successors should follow: he was a #Georgist, even penning an introduction to an edition of Henry George's' "Protection or Free Trade". Read it now Rachel & save your skin! oll.libertyfund.org/titles/georg...
...how much people have. And as Churchill said in his enlightened days as a #Georgist Liberal ask instead "how did you get it" and reward those who produce the wealth and tax those who take the surplus generated by the whole of society. #abolishtaxes #sharetherents #makepovertyhistory
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
What is this garbage?

But if economic rent is bad for the economy - if it reduces efficiency and holds back living standards - doesn't that mean taxing it, even taxing it quite heavily, can help reduce the budget deficit without harming the economy? Ross Gittins, winner of the 2025 E.J. Craigie Writing Award
Congratulations to Ross Gittins from

Interesting short write up from 1957 of the #Fairhope Alabama #SingleTax company, a successful long term #Georgist effort. The writers note that it is boring because it is so successful […]
An iconic fixture of Chicago - the 2-flat - is basically impossible to build these days. I learned a lot from this video, and it makes me sad that this kind of community-centered housing has been regulated out of existence.

We like to imagine that nothing can change. We are swamped with messages of our weakness, and apathy reigns supreme. Utrecht is an excellent example of what happens when people get off the couch and fight for a better community.

Truth should be the highest good, not the pretense of truth. American journalism fails at both.
"Forms are nothing when substance has gone, and the forms of popular government are those from which the substance of freedom may most easily go." - Henry George

The late great Fred #Foldvary, #Georgist and #anarchist, on how mass democracy is the cause of political #corruption and how to fix it with what he called "Cellular Democracy" (not meaning the candidates should run from a prison cell of course!): www.progress.org/articles/gov...
If there’s any big names/accounts to add to the #georgist feed let me know. Just didn’t want to spam accounts since they can drown up feeds a bit.
Ok, done with the #georgist posting for the day. Just trying to get the boat floating with some good thoughts out there
Finally, finally, made one for Henry George's greatest soldiers. Use #georgism or #georgist to contribute. Unfortunately no 🔰 emoji since that has it's own meaning in Japanese social media :/ May we be victorious over the rent seekers.
