> It's actively bad for you if you have to sell your family home and move somewhere else because you can no longer afford the taxes on it. But it's no problem of course that several generations of people currently can never afford to own a home of their own even though they contribute enormously to the economy and to society through their highly productive labour? Ten times more people have already been forced to move away from where they grew up because of real estate prices than would ever have to be forced to move away because of land value taxes. A hundred times more people can never afford a home because of real estate prices than would ever have to be forced to sell their homes because of land value taxes. | ||
