my mother hates the idea of Harberger taxation, she thinks it will be incredibly destabilizing to constantly live with the sense that you could lose your house I'm curious if anyone has experience owning something with Harberger ownership

I also have found older people with homes less open to it. Maybe stress the tax rate is a parameter: It could be that you have to be paid 20x your self assessed home price to lose it. Once that is established as probably not terrible (surely only used in cases like a super valuable railroad needing the ability to buy a line of houses), then you can ask how low would be ok?

I think for Harberger taxation to work it needs better explanations Are these true: 1. easier to buy for people moving to a new market 2. lower rent costs 3. buyer pays for you to move and gives you a bunch of $$ to buy another place 4. there's a notification period (1 to 6 months heads up depending on time in home?)
