gollark: Ideally we'd be able to partition Earth into... lots of... different areas, set up different governments in each with people who like each one in them, magically fix externalities between them and stop them going to war or something, somehow deal with the issue of ensuring children in each society have a reasonable choice of where to go, and allowing people to be exiled to some other society in lieu of punishment there - assuming other ones will take them, obviously. But that is impractical.
gollark: The reason I support *some* land-value-taxish thing is that nobody creates land, so reward from it should probably go to everyone.
gollark: The only big problem I can see with that is that you can't really have the property/developed stuff on that land separate from the land itself, at least with current technology and use of nonmovable stuff.
