DESCRIPTION:If you know someone who cares about the politics and health of society and 
 you want to start deliciously provocative conversations with them, or 
 rankle their assumptions, or disturb their equanimity . . . or even if you 
 just want to get rid of them, come on this walking tour about San Francisco 
 (and everywhere else's) real estate and the social philosophy of Henry 
 George. It's guaranteed to do the trick!\n\nGuaranteed? I'll give you $20 
 if it doesn't satisfy one of the four objectives above the very first time 
 you use the content of this walk with your friend, family member, or 
 otherwise disposed discussant.\n\nUnlike most other products, services, or 
 group therapies (such as est or whoozeamacallit's Three Pillars of Personal 
 Economic Transformation), you don't even have to come on the walk to "get 
 it." You may be assured, however, that by coming on this walk you'll get 
 the full up, humorous, aerobic version.\n\nHenry George, for all his 
 faults, had the following to say-- which is demonstrated to have endlessly 
 annoyed Republicans, Democrats, liberals, conservatives, socialists, 
 communists, libertarians, Ayn Rand devotees, and Lyndon LaRouche 
 goo-gooites-- The annual rent of nature belongs to society as public 
 revenue, while the value of stuff made by people belongs to those who, with 
 or without culture's contribution to the deed, actually deliver the good or 
 service to you.\n\nSimply read that last long sentence to a pinko or a Tea 
 Party folk and you'll get  a rise! Both will sooner engage in united 
 umbrage at your remark than concur that the market value of nature belongs 
 to society!\n\nYou must be willing to defend this assertion (even if you 
 are mendacious and don't believe it) in order to endlessly annoy others, 
 but it works just the same.\n\nOn the walk you'll see real life 
 applications of the assertion, you'll hear a practiced advocate shake down 
 some of the attendees, and you'll see how it's possible to live a stable, 
 happy life while endlessly annoying others. \n\nThere is a caveat:  those 
 who don't think much about society and social systems are indifferent to 
 the assertion; it only works with people who give a rat's arse about how 
 things are. No other promises are implied or guaranteed.\n
