> Land value is actually enormously important in the economy -- it's 1/3 of the value of all real assets and probably represents a similar amount of bank loans (real estate itself is 2/3 or real assets and about 2/3 of bank loans).

That's just consequences of the artificial scarcity of real estate. Real estate should be a much smaller fraction of the economy, and land value too. Once real estate stops being an investment, mortgage debt will be just like car loans, an important segment of the credit markets, but by no means the gargantuan size that it is today.

And once land value drops from 1/3 to 1/10 of the real estate assets, then the difference between Georgism, Marxism and Neoclassicism will become academic (as it should be).
