Taxation of Land Values in American Cities: The Next Step in Exterminating Poverty is a book written by Benjamin Clarke Marsh and published in 1911. The book focuses on the idea of taxing land values in American cities as a means of eradicating poverty. The author argues that the current tax system is flawed and unfair, as it taxes buildings and improvements on land rather than the land itself. By shifting the tax burden to land values, the author believes that this would encourage landowners to make better use of their land and discourage land speculation. The book also discusses the potential benefits of this system, such as the reduction of urban sprawl, the promotion of public transportation, and the creation of more affordable housing options. Overall, Taxation of Land Values in American Cities is a thought-provoking and informative book that explores an alternative approach to taxation and its potential impact on poverty in American cities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
