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

Harberger taxes never made any sense to me. 1) ownership becomes perpetual renting 2) whales benefit by being able to outbid anyone.

Is there any real world application of it?

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 don’t live with it, but agree with your mom I’d hate it for a house and think most other Americans would too

Implications of such systems outweigh it’s benefits tbh
