DESCRIPTION:Despite all the building going on in San Francisco, rents stay high. Why? 
 We of the The Commons SF argue it has a lot to do with why average wages 
 (not those driven by the tech sector) don't keep pace with housing 
 rents.\n\nWhat's the alternative for the working man or woman to working 
 for somebody else? Sure, it's starting a business of her/his own, only the 
 land prices of San Francisco eat up so much of the earned income. 
 Meanwhile, the mere owner of land in San Francisco hauls in income not so 
 much from the buildings he owns, but from the value of the land upon which 
 those buildings stand.\n\nCome to The Commons SF clubhouse for a free 
 supper and a short workshop introducing the concept of taxing land values 
 to smithereens while reducing taxes on the working person.\n\nThe "No Wall 
 on the waterfront (8 Washington)" campaign will be present to illustrate 
 how the privilege in owning land is incrementally obliterating the charm of 
 San Francisco.\n\nGood Food, Good Education, Fine Music!\nFree!\n
