  1. "From whom do the kings of the earth demand taxes, from their sons or from strangers?" They replied, "From strangers." "Then, the sons are tax free. But, that we may not cause outrage, go to the water and catch a fish."

  2. Please do not dehumanise people with language, a person should be referred to as he, she or they, it is for things. As for whether an unborn child is a person, if you are saying that whether they are a person or not depends on how biologically developed they are you are getting into VERY dangerous territory. Does that not imply that an adult who becomes less biologically developed becomes less human, and loses the right to life? Not only is it INCREDIBLY dangerous to say that anyone has the right to un-human someone else, but that sort of argument reduces all people to being just a collection of biological parts. If we are defined by our biology when it comes to whether we are human, we must be also defined by outer biology in every other way, yet that is considered ridiculous by nearly everyone.

  3. It seems grossly optimistic to claim that any land value tax would make enough money on it's own to replace other taxes.
