Georgismball, not to be confused with Geolibertarianismball, is an economically center-right, generally culturally center-left ideology that is typically placed in the lower middle of the political compass.
He believes that there should only be one tax, being the land value tax. He views property rights as only extending to the properties of labor and capital, and since land is neither, it's free realestate. Though his main bit is only having one tax, he sometimes promotes pollution taxes, as a treat.
Overall, it's an ideology centered around land & its distribution whose beliefs are often summed up with the phrase (usually in all caps) "landlords don't have rights", though this is somewhat of an exaggeration. While its views on land rights and natural resource ownership are very collectivist, most of its other views are relatively libright, and focus on creating efficiency in the economy to create more land value to tax.
