Geolibertarianism is an intersection of libertarianism and geoism. It holds that individuals have an equal right of access to economic land in kind or compensation.

I want as many anti-ancaps to give their strongest evidence that ancaps supposedly condone slavery. Rothbard's unjustifably infamous adoption quote doesn't advocate it; Walter Block is excommunicated. I ask because I want to have clearer public discourse and dispel myths: the NAP prohibits it.

Questions about the urban mechanics of it all, implementation?

Hi, apologies if there's something in this in the faq's or someplace like that on this...

I've been listening to a bit of Georgism. I have two major questions, the one I hope someone here can point towards the answer to is about the implementation of a lvt. Wouldn't it be the case that this would have to be implemented by the municipality that elects or appoints an assessors office? And the assessor's office would...ahem, assess the land and apply the designated lvt? I actually know someone from Arlen, Delaware, but i don't remember whether her presentation covered this. So, it couldn't be a Single Tax, unless the municipalities kicked back a hunk to the feds...correct?

My second question, I'm working thru videos on. It's just very hard to understand how it would bring down the price of something that is in limited supply...by taxing it....

One of the podcasts I'm listening to is includes someone who, in his day job, analyze the video game market. Is there...missing the word...guess how old I am!?...lol! a fabricated reality game that applies Georgist principles? I tried to noodle a bit on some platform once, I think it was called Democracy, where one creates worlds, but I got frustrated and gave up.

Anywho, I'm glad you all are here.

Would the LVT be collected on a federal or state level?

And how would state governments be funded if it's collected on a federal level?

Where are split-rate friendly US states?

What states, other than Pennsylvania, is it legal to do split-rate property tax? It seems some states have problems due to anti-Georgist language embedded in state constitutions.

Protecting Second Amendment Rights: Defending Individual Liberty and Self-Defense

The Founding Fathers recognized the necessity of the Second Amendment when drafting the Bill of Rights. It was established to ensure that citizens could protect themselves, their property, and their families from both individual threats and potential government overreach. The right to bear arms empowers citizens to assert their autonomy and preserve their individual liberty, allowing for a balance of power between the government and the people.

...

The Second Amendment is deeply rooted in the concept of self-defense. It ensures that law-abiding Americans have the means to protect themselves in times of imminent danger. By having access to firearms, individuals are better equipped to ward off potential threats, creating a sense of security and empowerment.

...

Throughout history, oppressive regimes have disarmed their citizens as a means to control and suppress dissent. The Second Amendment acts as a safeguard against such threats, empowering citizens to resist potential tyranny.

...

Striking a balance between protecting individual rights and implementing responsible measures is crucial. By focusing on measures that address mental health concerns, strengthen background checks, and promote education and training, we can work towards a well-regulated system that respects both individual rights and collective well-being.

The first steps towards the night-watchman state

If you are a classic liberal or minarchist you might have noticed your government has not been responsible with money and is probably in debt as well. So in order to fight it you propose decreasing the state's size in order to never repeat it again. But there is a problem. Just like you cannot go from looking like Nikocado avocado to looking giga chad overnight, you cannot go from whatever your state is to a Misesian nightwatchman state overnight. You gotta go there gradually and here are some first steps.

Fair warning, expect a permanent ban in r/libertarian for talking about the LVT.

When questioned they gave me some CYA comment about me breaking their rules of civil discourse (no clue what this is in regards to though) and then "Furthermore we do not owe you a platform for spreading Anti-libertarian ideologies such as socialism/communism."

It's sad, I was subbed there for a lot of years and it's a great place for teaching libertarian curious people what libertarianism is, in fact that's where I myself first learned about Henry George and his interesting ideas. I'd never so much as gotten a warning in all my years there, but such is life.

I'm not really sure which flavor of libertarianism the mods are now interested in pushing there, but it isn't ours.

What caused Single-Tax Colonies to fail?

I've looked into the history of the single-tax movement in preparation for an upcoming related lecture. Yet, I still haven't really found a common problem all of them faced that prevented expansion. Is there a book or paper that better describes why single-tax colonies faltered?

Yes or no?

Do you guys believe in basically Minarchism (minimal state: police, emergency services, military, justice system) financed through LVT and maybe Pigouvian taxes under the system of laissez faire capitalism?

Question: What is the difference between Left-Georgists, Right-Georgists and GeoLibertarianists?

Gidday!

​

Quick question to the GeoLibertarian Community.

​

What is the difference between 'Left-wing Georgism', 'Right-wing Georgism' and 'GeoLibertarianism'?

​

At the risk of sounding rather arrogant, isn't 'Georgism' centrist?
