DESCRIPTION:As we approach the USA's 4th of July celebration, we reflect upon the 
 substance of citizenship. Join an interactive walking tour that raises the 
 consideration that citizenship without economic entitlement to land is 
 dubious affiliation with the nation.\n\n"San Francisco's Gold Rush Century" 
 treks to the city's American advent original shoreline to reveal Fog City's 
 1879 "Big Idea" that the economic value of the USA should be utterly 
 socialized in order to make landlords of us all. In 1893 Frederick Jackson 
 Turner presented his Frontier Thesis that the American mind was largely 
 shaped by the prospect and availability of lots of land ensuring freedom 
 from interloping landlordism. San Francisco crashed into the shoals of 
 landlordism in 1852 when the "world rushing in" encountered the State's at 
 last operational Land Office. No longer could the land be claimed in 
 usufruct. Instead, land title precluded independent occupation of the 
 state, with paper title preempting self-employment. Join a FREE walking 
 tour presenting the case for ending private title to "location, location, 
 location" values in order to restore the frontier.\n
