Not sure about this in a world where there isn't demand for human labour. Especially in the post-consumer world. Very difficult future to see.

I'm reminded of the Houthis asking Claude to build them a missile guidance system. We're going to see the Toyota Hilux + .50 cal "technical" combo get some weird targeting system upgrades.
Georgism is objectively correct, which is why it'll never happen. Every parasite on earth has incentives to destroy any attempt at real taxation of their wealth.
