It    is   believed  that   the  earth  is  something   like  4,600,000,000   years   old.  How it came into being is not exactly understood, a mystery. It seems to be thought that massive rocky fragments were drawn together by gravity, becoming a single rotating orb turning in such a way that all parts receive light from the sun and then are shaded from it alternately.

Eventually it cooled to a temperature at which water could exist in its liquid form and cover large parts of its surface as it does today. This in turn is surrounded by a complete but very thin layer of atmospheric gases comparable in proportion to the skin on a fruit.

It is currently thought that Life began about 4,000,000,000 years ago. Again, we do not know how it came into being, another mystery. Not only do we do not know how it began but also we do not know what it is.

An Implementation Plan for Land Value Taxation, for which we are grateful to The Coalition for Economic Justice.

Land value taxation is a form of taxation designed to tackle the basic cause of poverty and ensure economic justice.

Virtually all taxes today are, to a greater or lesser extent, passed on ­that is, the burden of the tax is not carried by the person who initially pays it but by somebody else.

While poverty in Britain is not as widespread as it was a century ago, there is still a great deal of poverty here, and much more in some other parts of the world. Inevitably poverty encourages crime, and so everybody is threatened.

The Problem – Transport and other forms of communication are among the most important factors in determining where a person is willing to live or to run a business.

Most modem taxes are simply ways of plucking the taxpayer goose in a way designed to get the maximum number of feathers for the minimum number of squawks.

For a great many years, there has been an alternation of booms and slumps.

They are costly to collect and penalise productivity!

 Does the housing shortage mean we have to build many new towns on greefield sites or allow existing towns to eat up more of the countryside between them? Is there any spare land in urban areas? If so, how can we ensure it’s not wasted? Read on to find out.
