- s1artibartfast 3y agothis is a complete non-sequitur, But even in a gerogist land-value tax system doesnt solve the problem of government seizure. Somone can be paying the full rent unimproved value of their land, and the government might decide to void their lease and turn over all of their land, improvements, and work to someone else. The only thing that stops this is if governments respect the contracts they enter into, be they established property rights (in our system), or land lease contracts (in a Georgist system).
