Please stop spreading misinformation.

Citizens dividend has been a core idea since literally Henry George: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_George#Citizen's_dividen...

Just because you don't know what it means doesn't mean they don't.

Nowhere in what you linked describes this as a wealth tax. That link just describes paying people a UBI from the income generated by the land value tax. There's no mention of additional taxes.

Seems my understanding of Georgeism was correct after all. Maybe you're the one who should stop spreading misinfo?

Or did I miss the part where it proposes non-land-value types of tax?
