Campaign for Land Value Taxation

The Campaign for Land Value Taxation advocates for taxing the unimproved value of land, rather than buildings or other improvements. This approach encourages efficient land use, reduces speculation, and helps fund public services. By taxing land based on its value, it aims to promote fairer distribution of wealth and curb urban sprawl. Supporters believe this system can create more affordable housing, stimulate economic development, and address inequality, as landholders are incentivized to develop or make better use of their property rather than hold it idle for profit.
