A Biographical History of the Georgist Movement



“The grey heads and bald heads are in the majority. The problem that confronts those of us who want the torch held up in the future, is to fill up the ranks. In order to do that many things must be done, but we must not depend on the old or middle-aged. Somehow or other we must devise a way to reach the minds of the young people – when their minds are open, when they are ready for new truths.”

Mr. Rose, of Kansas City, Missouri (from a speech at the 1928 Henry George Foundation Congress, Chicago. Reprinted in: Land and Freedom, September-October 1928)

The owners of land and capital receive in general just about what their property or their services are worth to society. But this does not work out fairly in many respects. Land is essential to life and extremely limited. It automatically increases rapidly in value with growth of population. The payment for it is not for services but merely for ownership. We reach a stagewhre a very large share of the total income is going to people who produce nothing. They merely hang on to land and receive an unearned income from the toil of those who work."
