  5.  @gettuffstudios  common resource as in no one owns it. What are you 7? Common resource like air or water. Classical liberalism keeps to the Lockean Proviso: “Nor was this appropriation of any parcel of land, by improving it, any prejudice to any other man, since there was still enough and as good left, and more than the yet unprovided could use. So that, in effect, there was never the less left for others because of his enclosure for himself. For he that leaves as much as another can make use of, does as good as take nothing at all. Nobody could think himself injured by the drinking of another man, though he took a good draught, who had a whole river of the same water left him to quench his thirst. And the case of land and water, where there is enough of both, is perfectly the same.” The classical liberal tradition is clear that land is a common and the right to privatization comes with just compensation due to society for it’s private ownership. This is the liberal ground rent. Ever played Monopoly? Or heard of Georgism, or Thomas Paine’s Agrarian Justice? Thomas Jefferson’s notes on the issue? Classical liberalism holds the LVT as the only just and efficient tax, the value of land, and all others unnecessary and inefficient. Look up the Wikipedia on Georgism.

  6.  @gettuffstudios  forgive me for saying, since I believe you come from a genuine place, but that view comes from xenophobic nationalist illiberal indoctrination. The home is your possession, it is your home, and everything in it your property. The land itself isn’t. This doesn’t mean I own your house, but the land is common property. “Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another; but let him labor diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built." — Abraham Lincoln And again just compensation is due to society for anyone that seeks to privatize land itself. Again as Henry George said: “The equal right of all men to the use of land is as clear as their equal right to breathe the air — it is a right proclaimed by the fact of their existence. For we cannot suppose that some men have a right to be in this world, and others no right.” “The tax upon land values is, therefore, the most just and equal of all taxes. It falls only upon those who receive from society a peculiar and valuable benefit, and upon them in proportion to the benefit they receive. It is the taking by the community, for the use of the community, of that value which is the creation of the community. It is the application of the common property to common uses. When all rent is taken by taxation for the needs of the community, then will the equality ordained by Nature be attained. No citizen will have an advantage over any other citizen save as is given by his industry, skill, and intelligence; and each will obtain what he fairly earns. Then, but not till then, will labor get its full reward, and capital its natural return.”
