'''Social Georgism''' is an economically centre-left to left-wing and culturally variable (though typically left-leaning) ideology combining the Georgist idea of a land value tax, (often as the primary source of public revenue), with the desire for a sustainable and highly developed welfare state.  


They were brought up in the ways of the welfare state by their parent [[File: Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy]], but they soon also realized that her other parent [[File: Georgist.png]] [[Georgism]]'s idea of a land value tax (LVT) would be one of the best remedies to help solve the economic troubles causing frustration in her parent's household of late. They also sometimes look at their relative [[File: Nordmodel.png]] [[Nordic Model]] with admiration, and they share a lot of ideas with each other.
Social Georgism is in essence a variant of [[File:Georgist.png]] [[Georgism]] which broadly covers most of the left wing of said movement, though primarily centre-left, closely linked to [[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy]]. Any Georgists considering themselves left wing could potentially add the "Social" prefix, even though some of the rather specific ones have their own more or less fleshed out definitions, namely [[File:GeoSynd.png]] [[Geosyndicalism]].


Very early on, they got a child with [[File: Civnat.png]] [[Civic Nationalism]] in China, called [[File: 3princ.png]] [[Tridemism]], and they in turn almost succeeded in realizing their shared ideals before they were thwarted by [[File:Mao.png]] [[Maoism]].
Georgism itself could be considered quite "social", however, the movement has always had a divide between strongly libertarian types and more statist labour activists. Social Georgism would tend to attract the latter kind; generally, though not always, people favouring using the taxes collected through LVT to fund welfare provided by the state rather than a citizen's dividend.

==Beliefs==
Social Georgism is a socio-economic philosophy based on the ideas of economist and philosopher Henry George. George proposed that land, as a limited natural resource, should be the common property of humanity, and its economic value created by society should be shared equitably by all. The central idea of Social Georgism is to tax land rent (also known as economic rent) as the primary source of public revenue, instead of taxing labor or capital.
 
According to George, the value of land increases due to economic activity and societal development, rather than the individual efforts of landowners. Therefore, he argued that land rent should be collectivized and used to finance public services and social needs. This would be achieved through a single tax on land value, known as the single tax on land.
 
Social Georgism advocates for income redistribution through this tax, aiming to reduce economic inequality and promote social justice. Additionally, some proponents of Social Georgism also advocate for the abolition or significant reduction of other taxes, such as income and consumption taxes, to foster economic efficiency and reduce market distortions.
 
Although Henry George's ideas were influential in the 19th and early 20th centuries, Social Georgism has not been fully implemented in any modern society. However, it remains a topic of debate and discussion among economists and activists seeking to address issues such as poverty, inequality, and sustainable use of natural resources.
 
==Variants==
===[[File:GeoSoc.png]] '''Geo-Socialism'''===
[[File:GeoSoc.png]] '''Geo-socialism''' is a school of thought that combines elements of Georgism and socialism, advocating for public ownership of land and the redistribution of land rent, along with socialist principles seeking collective or state ownership of the means of production and social equality.
 
Within the context of geo-socialism, the idea is promoted that land and its natural resources should be considered as common property of society as a whole, and the benefits generated by their use should be equitably redistributed among all members of the community. This would be achieved through a single tax on the value of land, following the Georgist proposal, but with a more socialist orientation regarding income redistribution.
 
In addition to the issue of land, geo-socialism also advocates for the socialization of other important economic sectors such as industry, banking, and basic services, aiming to eliminate capitalist exploitation and ensure equal access to resources and essential services for all citizens.

"Rent is that portion of the produce of the earth which is paid to the landlord for the use of the original and indestructible powers of the soil."


Social Georgism is an economically centre-left to left-wing and culturally variable (though typically left-leaning) ideology combining the Georgist idea of a land value tax, (often as the primary source of public revenue), with the desire for a sustainable and highly developed welfare state.

Social Georgism is in essence a variant of Georgism which broadly covers most of the left wing of said movement, though primarily centre-left, closely linked to Social Democracy. Any Georgists considering themselves left wing could potentially add the "Social" prefix, even though some of the rather specific ones have their own more or less fleshed out definitions, namely Geosyndicalism.

Georgism itself could be considered quite "social", however, the movement has always had a divide between strongly libertarian types and more statist labour activists. Social Georgism would tend to attract the latter kind; generally, though not always, people favouring using the taxes collected through LVT to fund welfare provided by the state rather than a citizen's dividend.

Very early on, Social Georgism got a child with Civic Nationalism in China, called Tridemism, and they in turn almost succeeded in realising their shared ideals before they were thwarted by Maoism.
