A Remedy for the Fake Housing Crisis

It's fascinating to watch the experts go round and round over the decades on this one. When a remedy is sitting there ready and willing already.


What Faux Labour is proposing here is identical to historic proposals that have never helped and have large externalities punishing the poor yet further than the party of the working class already proceed to do.

But the 'best' politicians and the ones who quickly rise to the top are the ones who can play the keys of a selfish and ignorant people the most beautifully. Just because a party calls itself Labour, does not require it to care about that constituency for it to make good way.

And this problem has been resolved long ago anyway. The solution only needs to be adopted. Alas, I fear the people only want a hard remedy and the politicians across the political spectrum, including the greens and the woke are right behind the people already.

For example, there are a total of 3 options, with the power to fully resolve this so called crisis almost immediately. The first being the present shambles. The 2 others already are very well understood within our academies of learning, as follows.

Option 2 - mandatory Land Value Taxation

Simultaneously, tax the annual rental value of the location of all real estate, slowly tapering up to 100% over time. And abolish all other taxation, slowly tapering it down to 0% over time likewise. Avoiding taxation on the building and any improvements which of course is capital, not land value.

To benefit from a home does not require ownership, just exclusive possession. With the benefit received from the home in that location paid back as a rent, in full. You pay, for benefits received. That's fair isnt it?  Location value is far easier to assess more accurately than all other taxes. And given that tax comes out of rent in the end, clearly there is plenty available to fund the state. What is more this is the only tax which cannot be avoided or evaded. No wonder it is the least popular yet most efficacious.

Option 3 - voluntary Locations Value Covenants

If Option 2 is too radical, then use Location Value Covenants to allow the same thing to happen voluntarily rather than by statute. If the owner wants to volunteer the unearned rental value in their asset, in exchange for lower taxes or mortgage interest rates, then this is the option. It's voluntary so there's no state control and stupidity standing in the way of successful household budgeting.

COPA and Dr Craig Wright's Highly Principled Autistic Journey

If you are very bored and like reading High Court written judgements, follow this link .  https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/COPA-v-Wright-Judgment.pdf  Warning: It is not pretty and paints the defendant in a very poor light. I'm not convinced with the ruling, largely because it follows the collective narrative so perfectly and feel the judge may well be unconsciously supporting it being unaware of the shenanigans we all know have been happening.  To be fair to the judge Wright failed, deliberately or because he had no choice for some proximate reason, to show any convincing evidence. The judge knew this pre trial and was kindly giving Wright an opportunity during the trial to deliver.  Wright could well be a serial forger or the unluckiest man alive. My view is that due to an important new point of law on property rights, to do with linking identity to the crypto assets, meaning that crypto assets are identical in nature to any other property in law...

Executive Summary of the Modern World

...and the imaginary rumours we still create to remind us life is all about survival  We still possess primordial inherited instincts Which tell us about constant impending dangers Our ancient ancestors used them as a survival tool in an environment which was constantly dangerous And with the advent of social organisation these existential threats disappeared Yet we still possess the instinct, like it remains in our DNA. And as a substitute for real danger we create imaginary danger, to fill the gap. This survival instinct still drives us as a primary function. Because it gives our lives meaning. More meaning than religions, fame or fortune. Much more. The drive is unconscious so we cannot be aware of it's powerful driving force This means there is no scientific analysis, logic nor reason which can attend to it It's also a collective activity making it quite remote for individual action to identify and act upon So what is the result of this artificial separation of ancient inhe...

On Freedom, its Obligations and Society's Preference for Slavery

This piece is going to talk about my preference for slavery over freedom. And how and why I try to hide my preference from public view. The meaning of freedom and how self awareness fails to interact with it? I talk a lot about freedom lately and it's clear I do not understand the meaning of the term I spout so boldly. Curiously, I quickly lose my confidence when the meaning of freedom is brought under proper scrutiny. Yet I'm not self aware enough to confess to that observation of ignorance at depth. Why is it hard for me to observe my ignorance and selfishness, especially when I want to be seen by society as a good, honest, law abiding citizen? There must be a deep psychological reason which is forbidden knowledge for the politics, science and economics driving society and its so called freedoms. I cite society as being close to the root and a driving force because I constantly seek validation from it more than anything else. Even family. Freedom and obligation are mutually i...
