Henry George is considered one of the last [[w:Classical_economics|classical economists]], largely building on the foundation of [[File:Clib.png]] [[Classical Liberalism|Classical Liberals]] such as [[w:Adam_Smith|Adam Smith]] and [[w:John_Stuart_Mill|John Stuart Mill]]. It was observed by them that a tax on what they called "ground-rents" and "the ordinary rent of land", the [[w:Economic_rent|economic rent]] from location and natural resources, was the most just and efficient form of taxation, and this notion was followed by Henry George to its logical conclusion: replacing all other taxes with a tax on ground/land rents, i.e. a [[w:Land_value_tax|land value tax]].
The movement itself is said to be much older than George, and a long list of economists, political figures, agitators, and land reformers are considered fore-runners: From the [[w:Gracchi|Gracchi brothers]] of the [[File:Res_Publica.png]] [[Roman Republicanism|Roman Republic]] to the [[File:TLeveller.png]] [[w:Diggers|Diggers]] of England, the [[File:Physiocracypix.png]] [[Physiocracy|Physiocrats]] of France, and other [[File:Enlightenment.png]] [[Enlightenment Thought]] thinkers such as [[File:Paine.png]] [[w:Thomas_Paine|Thomas Paine]] with his [[w:Agrarian_Justice|Agrarian Justice]] and the concept of a [[w:Citizen%27s_dividend|citizen's dividend]]. Several [[File:Farm.png]] [[Agrarianism|Agrarian]] [[w:List_of_peasant_revolts|revolts]] around the world also reflect the struggle against private enclosure of common land and disproportionate taxation (such as [[w:Poll_tax|poll tax]]) upon tenants, the poor, and working people - with tax exemption and other privileges for the landed nobility and rich landowners. Henry George is, for the Georgists, the pinnacle of this movement for land reform and economic justice. Some modern proponents prefer to use the term "Geoism" to broaden the scope. Coincidentally "Geo-" in both cases comes from the Ancient Greek word for earth/land.

Historically Georgism spread around the whole world, with important proponents in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Oceania.
Line 239 ⟶ 240:
*[[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy]] - I really think she could be warming up to the idea of a land value tax...
*[[File:Nordmodel.png]] [[Nordic Model]] - Like above, and the [[w:freedom to roam|freedom to roam]] is based.
*[[File:
*[[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] [[Neoliberalism]] - My most successful Protégé! Just be a little bit more friendly to union ok!
*[[File:Chilib.png]] [[Chicago School]] - Thinks LVT is the ''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yS7Jb58hcsc least bad tax]''. Friedman was very cool!
Line 252 ⟶ 253:
*[[File:AnSynd.png]] [[Anarcho-Syndicalism]] - Extremist, but I like the cat symbol.
*[[File:Ancom_Furry.png]] [[Anarcho-Communism]] - Pretty extreme…<s>but nice cat ears UwU</s>.
*[[File:
*[[File:Farm.png]] [[Agrarianism]] - Old granny (wrongly) thinks farmland has high land value, and thus generally opposes LVT.
*[[File:Fut2.png]] [[Futurism]] - Uhhh, thanks I guess?
*[[File:Authcap.png]] [[Authoritarian Capitalism]] & [[File:Authoritarian_Conservatism.png]] [[Authoritarian Conservatism]] - Authoritarianism is bad, but at least Singapore has an LVT and the Chiangist KMT implemented my ideals in Taiwan.
*[[File:Anprim.png]] [[Anarcho-Primitivism]] - Hates land ownership too, but you definitely take things ''way'' too far. Not to mention you're just downright weird.
*[[File:Awaj.png]][[Anarchism]]- Thanks for supporting me despite our MAJOR differences but you seem to be against the positive side of state power. Also why do you keep following me in the streets and staring at me in the bushes?
*[[File:Avar.png]] [[Avaritionism]] - That is not what I am talking about... But maybe you are good, when we are talking about landlords.
*[[File:Nrx.png]] [[Neoreactionaryism]] - Least expectable follower.
===Enemies===
Line 268 ⟶ 271:
*[[File:Hoppef.png]] [[Hoppeanism]] - Even worse than Anarcho-Capitalism.
*[[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism–Leninism]] - Leave my labor and capital alone!
*[[File:Mao.png]] [[Maoism]] - Similar to the above. <
*[[File:Conservative.png]] [[Conservatism]] - Defender of rich landed interest.
*[[File:Reactcross.png]] [[Reactionaryism]] - Even worse than Conservatism.
