Famous Libertarians Part I
I will write here about famous libertarians. The basics, many are not in school curriculum at all, even college. Seemingly erased from history, yet there has been many great libertarians that shaped this country into what it is today and consequently changed the world. Today I will tell you about the man currently in my avatar. A hero of MLK, Henry George.
Henry George, a left leaning libertarian, was famous for his belief and land value taxes, in short this is the belief that your taxes are based on the value of the land that you own. Henry George argued that this would promote growth and progress. The game monopoly was based on his philosophy.

Everyone knows about the most popular board game Monopoly. What many people don’t know is that this board game was originally called The Landlord’s Game and created by Lizzie Magie in 1904, specifically as an educational tool to teach the principles of Henry George.
If Henry George was such an influential economist to inspire the most popular board game, you begin to wonder why his name isn’t even mentioned in high school books covering American history, economics, or ethics. He isn’t even taught in college courses. The board game was not only the most popular, his treatise, Progress and Poverty, was the best-selling book by an American economist, with international influence, which Hong Kong specifically adopted, and inspired a populist movement.
Henry George was even an inspiration for MLK in his last book and speeches before he was assassinated. Henry George pointed out the flaws of both capitalism and socialism. His concepts bridged the gap between capitalism and socialism in a definitive and justified manner. However, the global banking cartel, european monarchs, and other aristocrats couldn’t take over our nation if the people had a solid understanding of economics. They couldn’t push forward the flawed systems of socialism, Keynesian economics, and Austrian economics if there was a theory which debunked all of them.
They couldn’t engineer problems and present solutions with Henry George in the pool of public knowledge. They hid the concepts as a children’s game, preventing people from relating common sense to real economic theory. The American people could only relate to whatever the false left, false right, and false libertarian foundations pushed forward.
They instituted the Austrian School of Economics and the Ludwig von Mises Institute in conservative and libertarian foundations, taught at places like Auburn University. They instituted Keynesian Economics and the Chicago School of Economics for more mainstream or moderate economics. They instituted socialism and communism in your left and liberal institutions.
All political paradigms were under their misdirection of flawed economic policies so they could run their problem-reaction-solution scams with the people, who were unable to articulate a real solution.
They made sure Henry George, the most important American economist, was deleted from the American memory. He is the unknown ghost behind the most popular board game and behind our state and local government tax systems. You could probably even say it should be his face rather than Teddy Roosevelt on Mt. Rushmore. His remains consist of a one room office barely manned with a part-time volunteer in Pennsylvania.
It is the conspiracy never talked about even though so blatant. It is only a matter of time until the global banking empire can achieve their dream of once again owning all the land and having a complete monopoly over the people, unless the people learn about Henry George.
