How Land Value Taxes Could Shrink the Wealth Gap

In this episode of Inequality Conversations with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore the land value tax—a century-old idea that could redistribute economic rents and curb speculative wealth. They use Pittsburgh's brief experiment with a two-rate property tax in the 1980s as a concrete example, explaining how it encouraged development and discouraged land hoarding. The hosts also discuss why most US cities have abandoned the approach, and whether recent housing crises might revive interest in taxing land value separately from improvements. A focused look at one policy tool that targets the root of unearned wealth accumulation. #LandValueTax #WealthGap #EconomicJustice #PropertyTaxReform #Georgism #Pittsburgh #HenryGeorge #HousingAffordability #EconomicRent #Speculation #TaxPolicy #UnearnedIncome #WealthInequality #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #InequalityConversations #TaxReform Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
