Rates barely cover council services and so they are not a tax. If you'd read my posts or watched the Henry George trailer you would know what he advocated- Total abolition of all other taxes. Single Tax on the unearned rental income of land. All land speculation immediately stops, and land owners do not get the unearned windfall bonus when society builds roads, rail, schools, libraries, police, fire stations, everything the filthy landholder bludger simply raises rents and sale prices and confiscates the added value which belongs to society as a whole. The landholder is a thief, he never paid me for the land. Did the landholder bludger ask the next generation?
Who pays for the police and law courts to enforce the landholder bludger's false claim to the land title?
