I was pleased to be able to present the case for Land Value Taxation to a mixed audience of community leaders, alumni of the Henry George School - which sponsored the event - and other interested students.
This New York City-centric presentation presents real, practical, solutions to the issues of:
- Sustainable Growth
- Job Creation
- Affordable Housing
- Fairness in Taxation
- Urban Sprawl
- Monopoly and Speculation on Land (which leads to booms and busts)
No new revenues needs to be raised if the city captures the Land Rent that really is already part of the Commons.
