Our final radio show on 3CR sees Karl going out on a win, discussing Victoria's Windfall Gains Tax legislation that passed last week. Along the way you'll hear analysis of Australia's record land price inflation, why we need to switch taxes off the productive sector and onto monopoly interests plus a statement from Saul Eslake at the Housing Affordability and Supply Inquiry on how the mechanics of a land tax works. We finish up admiring the founders of 3CR and their establishment of long term community infrastructure and its parallels to Georgist thinking. Long live the beloved airwaves of 3CR. Show notes

On A Win

Karl celebrates 600 episodes with a walk through economic history over the last 14 years of the show, highlighting some of the key aspects of Georgist economics along the way. How's this: wealth must flow to those who employ and create rather than those who hoard and wait. Show notes

The $20 Trillion Question

Karl is joined by his colleagues Emily Sims &amp; Jesse Hogan to pull apart property lobby spin in light of the recent Victorian Budget. We actually had a few wins, with the Rezoning Windfall Gains tax ruffling feathers amongst those who see it as their right to the golden pen tick, of having their land rezoned by the millions. These are the sort of policies needed to quell a global property bubble out of control.

The Taxation of Big Tech

Its an absolute pleasure to have Fred Harrison (Share the Rents) kick the year into gear with an appraisal of his new book series ‘We Are Rent’. Listening to his surgical tact one can’t help but feel these teachings contain deep and meaningful wisdoms addressing the key issues of our times. Just when you think you know it all, Fred unpeels another layer of understanding: “We continue to privatise the essence of our humanity. Those of us who claim to own land and therefore claim the rents that are produced in our societies are actually enacting the role of slavery. We are appropriating other people’s humanity.” Show notes

We Are Rent

To reforming economics as an interpretation of reality, rather than a diversion play for monopolists.

Corruption, Transparency & Traction

The Renegades Podcourse #3: Land is the central tenet of Georgist understanding, but yet our most valuable asset is ignored in economics, ignored in the policy setting - unless it starts to falter. Land represents natural resources above and below us. It also represents land-like assets, that share a similar natural monopoly status. So it is crucial to determining both wealth distribution and societal efficiencies. Let’s dig in deeper. A short clip is included featuring Jacob Schwartz-Lucas on the key ingredient - the law of rent. Show notes.

Why is Location revered as a real estate strategy, but ignored in economics?

Just how far did Australia’s land prices go? There should have been a drum roll for this announcement! We traverse through the impact of such increases via latest census findings, reference Saul Eslake, geek out on the Productivity Commission’s latest report, delve into Bowie Bonds and finish with some Adani controversy. In the midst of this, Karl takes aim at one of the nation’s leading comedians - when are we going to find a celebrity who is willing to stand for a fairer economic system?
