“THE SINGLE TAX”?

  1. Well, it’s not really a tax, it’s a rent.
  2. And how silly to believe we could have only one tax?
  1. Yes, but we need to speak in terms that most people understand. They fail to see any difference between a tax and a rent, so using the word ‘tax’ serves the purpose of introducing them to a levy on land and natural resources–on economic rents–which unlike all taxes, cannot be passed on in prices!
  2. Is it really silly? Now that we have electric cars and vehicles, governments are all about “How can we levy taxes on these?” “What’s the best way?Why is this? Isn’t it about time to reverse the process and to start removing taxes on everything?

i.e. Towards ‘the single tax’, a rental levy on the value of the land over which we hold title, the resources that we extract from the earth, and the value of the electro-magnetic spectra which big-Tech and AI employ? Why not?

Let’s start to un-tax everything and paradoxically employ “the single tax“!
