Assunto: Re: [unSYSTEM] Geolibertarians and Land Value Tax to replace all other forms of unjust taxation
It's not quite the same. The blockchain is literally created by the
miners (the part that actually is useful, the new blocks). The land
was always there.

Not sure how I feel about land tax, except that it seems eminently
more logical than the other forms of tax.
