Oddbean new post about login | logout Georgism ftw
Georgism isn't against private property, it just differ the degree of use and occupancy from others theories of property
It's not private if you can't use it at your will.
In a voluntary decentralized contractual community it's acceptable
I'd like to see how that voluntary decentralized contractual community looks like, where land use isn't private. Where's this located? Is can I join? Georgism advocates land tax. How do members of the community earn to pay this tax? Do they have skills and trade?
I think different models of property can co-exist as long as they're all voluntary (in a communal level). If you want to enjoy absolute property rights you'll have to live isolated like a hermit
Absolute property rights are what people here are advocating for. If you think a different sort of community can exist you'd actually have to show me one.
Absolute property rights and absolute freedom of speech doesn't exist if you live in a community. The difference between a libertarian and a statist in this assumption is just how they negotiate these rights, libertarians negotiate in a voluntary contractual level and statist leave these decisions to the government bureaucrats
