The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- His writing was popular in 19th-century America and sparked several reform movements of the Progressive Era.
- He inspired the economic philosophy known as Georgism, the belief that people should own the value they produce themselves, but that the economic value of land should belong equally to all members of society.
- George famously argued that a single tax on land values would create a more productive and just society.
