Land value taxation and taxing the super rich are both a must-do.

And taxing gambling is a good idea too.

Tax the mega rich, its about time. AND corporations. Shut the door to off-shore secret stashes too.

John McConnell's proposal for land value taxation should be a priority. It would provide a huge source of revenue, and economists agree it is non-distortive. It would ensure that those who claim to own the country bear the brunt of its running costs.

Great ideas. We certainly need a change of direction. Neoliberalism economics has had its day. American capitalism is sinking in the sunset of its day.
