Georgian land tax premise:

Let’s say:
- You own a piece of land in a city
- You don’t build anything on it, just wait for prices to go up
- Ten years later, the neighborhood is booming—thanks to new subway lines, stores, schools
- Now your land is worth 10x more, even though you didn’t do anything

Georgism says you shouldn’t get to keep all of that profit—it was created by everyone else. So a land value tax would make sure you pay some of that value back into the community.

You should not be able to own land. Or pay some kind of social tax on it eg Harberger tax
