The concept behind Georgism is ancient.
In Biblical Israel all land was redistributed every 50 years.
The exact implementation probably wouldn’t make sense in our times (they divided the land initially by lottery, and all land sales reverted every jubilee year. Everyone “went back home”, all at once - effectively resetting the Monopoly board to restart the game).
However, the idea can probably be adapted using a more gradual, non-synchronous, and non-tribal method. (Perhaps pay the land tax with shares in the land?).
