Discover a practical case for how land value taxation could curb poverty and boost opportunity.
This clear, argument-driven book argues that alleviating the land monopoly offers a smarter path than sweeping socialism. In accessible prose, the author analyzes how access to land shapes wages, production, and national prosperity. It connects big ideas from economic reform to everyday lives, and explains how a specific policy—taxing land values—could fund social relief while preserving personal liberty.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the pressing social issues of the late 1800s and presents a debate between the author and a fictional character named John Smith. The author argues that the misery and inequality of the time stemmed primarily from the land monopoly, which he defines as a form of exclusive ownership over property and resources. He argues that this monopoly leads to unjust privileges and wealth inequality. The author contrasts this with competition, which he views as a natural law that ensures fairness and rewards individuals justly for their labor. The book delves into the nuances of these ideas, examining the effects of competition and land monopoly on farmers, laborers, and society as a whole. It offers a unique perspective on the social and economic challenges of the late 19th century, highlighting the tension between individual rights and the collective well-being of society.
