Abolish All Taxation Save That Upon Land

Property In Land Is As Indefensible As Property In Man.

The Tax Upon Land Values Is The Most Just And Equal Of All Taxes. It Falls Only Upon Those Who Receive From Society A Peculiar And Valuable Benefit, And Upon Them In Proportion To The Benefit They Receive.it Is The Taking By The Community For The Use Of The Community Of That Value Which Is The Creation Of The Community. It Is The Application Of The Common Property To Common Uses. When All Rent Is Taken By Taxation For The Needs Of The Community, Then Will The Equality Ordained By Nature Be Attained.

It Is Not The Business Of Government To Make Men Virtuous Or Religious, Or To Preserve The Fool From The Consequences Of His Own Folly. Government Should Be Repressive No Further Than Is Necessary To Secure Liberty By Protecting The Equal Rights Of Each From Aggression On The Part Of Others, And The Moment Governmental Prohibitions Extend Beyond This Line They Are In Danger Of Defeating The Very Ends They Are Intended To Serve.

Passing Into Higher Forms Of Desire, That Which Slumbered In The Plant, And Fitfully Stirred In The Beast, Awakes In The Man.
