you seem to think that compensating those who create value has something
to do with compensating those who own land. It doesn't.
<please see response to royls>
OK, I read it. It didn't make sense.
Furthermore, you seem to think that an attempt should be made to take LVT
revenues and return them to private producers who create the rental value
of land.
Yes.
The right way to do that is to use it to decrease taxes that already are
leavied on such producers: income and sales taxes.
Ultimately, it's impossible to go beyond that, and furthermore unnecessary.
But as Andy F. pointed out, this is going about it the wrong way: the
right thing to do is to take the revenue and use it to cut taxes on
production, particularly income taxes and sales taxes.
My point is that the LVT should be applied fairly. Are you suggesting that
an _unfair_ LVT is ok if it offsets other unfair taxes?
Your conceptions of "unfair" and "LVT" are incoherent.
