Exploring Citizen's Dividend and Economic Equality
This chapter examines the citizen's dividend concept, a proposal aimed at reducing economic inequality by shifting taxation from individual earnings to natural resource value. It explores historical influences, successful models like the Norwegian oil fund and Alaska's dividend system, and the philosophical discussions surrounding land value tax and its implications for a fairer economy. Additionally, it delves into key figures such as Henry George and Fred Harrison, whose works contribute to understanding cycles in the real estate market and the broader discourse on economic reforms.
