A discussion erupted over on Google+ that lead one of the commenters to remark
All wealth is derived from the land, which is why all taxes which are not use taxes should be property taxes.
Being unable to convince the author of this comment that his statement is bunk, that if indeed “all wealth is derived from the land” then we’d still be in the stone age, I here present proof that all wealth does not “originate from the land”. In fact, very little wealth does “originate from the land”.
When the published offered me the chance to review this book, I jumped at the opportunity.
