    Who knows whether there is or not? Nobody's explained it coherently yet.

      Well it's pretty simple. You pay a tax on the value of the land you own.

        We have given your idea the respect it deserves

        Now a personal question if I may: why do you spend your time in your rental bedsit wanking over poorly understood economics books rather than losing your virginity?
        You and AtW seem to be made from an identikit mould except that AtW is slightly more successful.

            And that explains it does it?

              OK then. What % of state income will come from the land tax?

                So you got up this morning and saw that people can't be bothered educating you any more and thought 'I'll start it all off again'.

                You didn't say how you are going to deal with pension company land ownership which is significant.

                How much tax would you pay on 1 hectare given this year's PSBR?

                  Actually it was me repeatedly educating you yesterday.

                  There could be some compensation scheme for people who own a lot of land. That would come under transitional problems.

                  Again the tax is based on the value of the land, so that would depend how valuable that hectare was.

                    Yes, and how many people will the 'Transitional Problems Department' have to employ?

                      No it would not. Pensioners would forever be forfeiting their income. That is not transitional.
