Ah, the sweet joy of standing for the right and good in society. Tax the rich! Nail the corporate thieves! Expose the banksters!

And yet. When it comes to taxing away the annual value of land (more easily understood as the rent you pay for "location, location, location"), you're easily bounced off the protest circuit. "Tax away the socially-generated value of land? Why, land isn't worth much anymore! The grandmas will be forced to move! Who will be able to afford to live in San Francisco if land values are no longer privatized?"

Yes, in this regard the hoary hosts of Progressive Politics are so often bounced off the revolutionary mat.

Come along on a free walking tour analyzing social movements in San Francisco in order to expose the little well-spring of Trumpism (Trumpism: the glorification of privatizing the Earth) inside each of us, namely ignorance of/accommodation of/even commitment to the privatization of land values!

Caution: attendance may leave Libertarians hurrahing land rent communism, and socialists heralding the end of business taxes!
