[Barrin92]

Central problem with these kinds of systems of thought is actually hinted at in the piece itself

>"While Georgism does not have a philosophy of governance, it can easily be harmonized with distributist ideals. In many governments today, especially the United States, there is a substantial bureaucracy which creates red tape rather than solving problems"

Georgism and similar economic ideas that favor localism have no theory of governance or of power. You can imagine a G.K. Chesterton style economy where we all live in a sort of Catholic Hobbingen of family owned businesses or Le Guin's Anarres, but there's a reason we're not living in it now.

Without having a theory of administration, that is to say bureaucracy and governance and how to beat all those big companies and actors that ruin your distributist dreams into submission, you have a considerable problem. There is no such thing as 'naturally limited government'. That these systems do not magically sustain themselves is visible in Europe with the decline of Christian- and Social-Democracy respectively whose economic and cultural foundations (largely Catholic/neo-Calvinist social teaching) started to break apart.
