Georgist Party

The Georgist Party is a political movement inspired by Henry George’s ideas, advocating for the economic reform of land ownership. It promotes the idea that land value—its worth due to location and community development—should be taxed heavily, while reducing taxes on labor and productive enterprise. The goal is to create a fairer distribution of wealth, reduce economic inequality, and prevent land speculation from inflating prices. By capturing land value rents for public benefit, the party aims to fund government services and promote social and economic justice, emphasizing that land is a common resource rather than a private good.
