There's hope yet for the next generation. Tax the land. LVT🫱🏻‍🫲🏼UBI

"UBI seems to be effective...I don't need it to be perfect, I just need people not to starve." - George Stroumboulopoulos

UBC's Patrick Condon has 3 solutions to the housing crisis, and it's all about land. 1. Stop using tax dollars to boost demand even more. 2. Capture land value to benefit the public, not speculators. 3. Use that value to build affordable housing.

One of the best videos ever made on how land value tax could help address the housing crisis. By @bcgeu.bsky.social

The public has funded many technologies that today fuel massive private sector rents (excess profit). Economist Mariana Mazzucato believes we should better share this co-created wealth, through policies like citizen's dividends.

It's completely absurd that a city like Toronto has so much low-density housing around transit. The incentives are all backwards. It should be more profitable, not less, to build & maintain homes than to hold land underused.

B.C. could eliminate taxes on income, property, transfer, and SVT with a single tax on land value. It could leave most households ahead and make the tax system much fairer.

"Canada has built an economy where the best way to get rich isn't to invent create or build anything, it's to own houses and wait for prices to rise" "Money from work is taxed higher than money from owning homes" Imagine a housing minister saying this

Jeff Bezos: "The bottom half workers pay 3% of all taxes – it should be zero" There is a much better option than taxing working people. If the goal is fairness, start with land. It benefits from society's productivity without contributing back.

Paypal co-founder Peter Thiel calls the US, UK and Canada a "Georgist real estate catastrophe". A giant wealth transfer from younger/working class to older/landowners. He supports taxing land (over other things) to fix housing and the economy.

Marco Rubio: "Cuba not only has weapons they've acquired from Russia and China, but they also host Russian and Chinese intelligence presence in their country. So Cuba has always posed a national security threat to the US. They're a leading state sponsor of terror."

TODAY: ALL ROADS LEAD TO THE SOUTH. Republican lawmakers across the South are carving up maps to dilute Black voting power and protect their own power because fair maps would threaten their grip. They knew the voters didn’t support this, so they went around them. 1/2

'The wrong way to go about growth is to pay billions into the EU.' 'Even if you pay a billion in, but you get £10 billion back in value?' Britain would have to pay £1bn for closer ties to Brussels. Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride doesn't think it's worth it. @matthew-wright.bsky.social

Putin has lied his entire career. Yet Witkoff says we can take Russia “at their word” that they’re not sharing intelligence with Iran. Taking the Kremlin at face value while U.S. intelligence reportedly says otherwise is utterly incomprehensible and mind-boggling naive.
