Current Objections to the Exaction of Economic Rent by Taxation Considered
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fundamental examination of the ethical and economic arguments for a land value tax. Focusing on natural rights, the author argues that private property in land is unjust and should be replaced with a single tax on the value of land. This tax would thus abolish all other forms of taxation. The author situates their work within a long intellectual tradition of thought on the rights of man and the role of government. Specific criticisms of the author's ideas are addressed and refuted, making this an effective counterpoint to common objections raised. Ultimately, the abolition of the speculative value of land and the lightening of the tax burden on productive industry are put forth as significant and positive effects of implementing a land value tax. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781528257930_0
