Henry George School

http://www.henrygeorgeschool.org Why today amid leisure and affluence do we have people who are destitute? Henry George, one time candidate for mayor of New York City, sought to answer that question 100 years ago in his book Progress and Poverty. Today we hear of Mark Twain and Thomas Edison from that period yet at the time Henry George was just as prominent. Today the school offers free courses in economics and work continues worldwide to advocate the Georgist philosophy of a single land tax. Also see: http://ied.info
