Guys, don't even waist your time.

Bill and myself and Steve and Varrin and MR Volenterist, and numerous others went round and roud with this Bill charactor, and in the end he never came up with anything fancy.

This is a religion to him.

This system of yours seems to be based on feel good economics. e.g. How can I share economic rent if I do not hold a job and thus have something (other than land) to share?
I dunno - [... incomprehensible gobbledy gook ...]

Finally we're getting somewhere.

Hey Bill .... I just realized .... you have never written any articles for the Keene Free Press. Why don't you send me one?

Quotehe never came up with anything fancy

no, just good old fashion classical liberalism...that's all.

QuoteThis is a religion to him

interesting comment coming from a self-described christian anarchist.

I am describing nothing more than what Leo Tolstoy advocated.

tracysaboe

Christianity isn't a religion. It's not based on blind faith.

It's a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

I don't worship Tolstoy and George like you do. Arguments from authority are illogical.

Of course, you were told that numerous times 3 or more years ago, and yet you still spout of as if they mean something.

At least come up with some new arguments instead of the same drivle over and over again.

I talked with Jesus the other day, he said while he likes Tracy he some times wishes he would just be quite so he could watch his Firefly dvd's.

Russell, I'm no editor, but I think you want your articles to be readable!  I'm not a totally dull knife, and I can't comprehend any of his posts!

I think Russell is just hoping that if FrankChodorov sits down and takes the time to write something up it would be a bit more readable and comprehensible.

typically people who don't comprehend what someone has written (for whatever reason) ask clarifiying questions...

*Sigh* Do you honestly think you can convince me that property taxes are a good thing?

Heck, I'd rather have income tax than property tax. At least with income tax if you stop working you don't have to pay anyone anything. With property taxes you have to pay them whether you have a job or not.

Property taxes and self-sufficiency do not go together.

FrankChodorov

QuoteDo you honestly think you can convince me that property taxes are a good thing?

all I am trying to point out to you is a way of living that will create the greatest amount of equal freedom for the greatest number of people with use of simple logic and reason.

QuoteWith property taxes you have to pay them whether you have a job or not.

I just gave you two scenarios where you would not have to pay...

1. at title transfer
2. with a lien system

QuoteProperty taxes and self-sufficiency do not go together.

your obviously under the false impression that if my system were implemented there wouldn't be any homesteadable land with no economic rent attached to it...because it demands that people use their location much more intensively (particularly in the urban core) there would be land abandoned on the margins that could easily be homesteaded...
