Georgism

Georgismball, not to be confused with Geolibertarianismball, is an economically center-right, generally culturally center-left ideology that is typically placed in the lower middle of the political compass.

He believes that there should only be one tax, being the land value tax. He views property rights as only extending to the properties of labor and capital, and since land is neither, it's free realestate. Though his main bit is only having one tax, he often promotes pollution taxes, as a treat.

Overall, his ideology is centered around land & its distribution and his beliefs are often summed up with the phrase (usually in all caps) "landlords don't have rights", though this is somewhat of an exaggeration.

While his views on land rights and natural resource ownership are very collectivist, to combat unjust inequality, most of his other views are relatively individualistic, focusing on creating efficiency in the economy to create more land value to tax.

His father Physiocracy was quite old when he was born, so he was mostly brought up by his uncle  Classical Liberalism.

Eventually he became the father of  Geo-Anarchism and Geolibertarianism with his cousins  Anarchism and  Libertarianism.

Despite this, of all his cousins, he's generally on best terms with  Liberalism; but he also tries to keep friendly with  Capitalism and Socialism even though they seldom leave room for his views, especially when they're in the same room...

Friends

 * [[File: Geolib.png]] Geolibertarianismball - Ah yes, my more uncompromising son; not so fond of our statist left-wing relatives.
 * [[File: Angeo.png]] Geo-Anarchismball - Hates the state even more than his brother. Wait, son, how are you going to tax the land without a state? Nevermind, it's the intention that counts.
 * [[File: Clib.png]] Classical Liberalismball - Taught me Classical Economics and usually supports my views on landlords.
 * [[File: Lib.png]] Liberalismball - He used to promote my ideas; unfortunately only when it suited him.
 * [[File: Envi.png]] Environmentalismball - Polluting and exploiting our natural resources lowers the value of the land, and thus reduces future tax revenue!
 * [[File: Socdem.png]] Social Democracyball - I really think she could be warming up to the idea of a land value tax...
 * [[File: Dsa.png]] Democratic Socialismball - Probably already wants to make land common property.

 * [[File: AnSynd.png]] Anarcho-Syndicalismball - Extremist, but I like the cat symbol.
 * [[File: Farm.png]] Agrarianismball - Old grandad generally (wrongly) thinks farmland has high land value, and thus opposes LVT.
