Georgism
Taxes land and natural resources instead of labor, arguing that the value of land belongs to everyone.
Associated with: Henry George and his book Progress and Poverty.
Georgism sits in the left-libertarian part of the Caucus economy and liberty compass: slightly state-led and leaning libertarian. The clearest positions are leaning libertarian on liberty and authority, leaning nature-first on environment and leaning progressive on culture.
