This list is great, and it points in the direction of how we ought to tax ourselves to generate the public revenue necessary to make a community a good place to live.
Land value taxation is the most logical, efficient, just, non-distorting, tied-to-benefits-received way to pay for schools, emergency services and courts, public transportation, the amenities which will draw others to our area either as residents, tourists or business travelers. Further, it avoids burdening the economy, and works to create jobs and reward genuine entrepreneurship, creating a healthy job market and a variety of businesses which will compete for our patronage and meet our needs.
