Episode 59. Jeff Smith: Land’s Value Belongs To Everyone

Author Jeffery Smith and RA “Kris” Millegan discuss Smith’s book, “Counting Bounty: The Quest to Know the Worth of Earth.” (Smith: “It wasn’t the tax that was crucial. It was returning that as dividends to people that is the key element.”

Regarding a universal basic income: “Classically, the value of land is something that belongs to society [which the members of] should share in equally.

Now they just have to catch up in using rent to fund it.”)
