What would a Georgist European Union look like?
• countries raise the bulk of their public revenue from an ad valorem tax on the rental value of land.
• Contributions to the EU central fund in proportion to each country's aggregate land rental value.
• No tariffs charged on imports to or within the Single Market area.
• No restrictions on imports to the Single Market area, subject only to the country of origin, and contents being clearly marked, unless there is a major issue of public safety.
• No sales taxes within the Single Market area (with the possible exceptions of alcohol and tobacco).
• CAP scrapped.
• VAT scrapped.
I would settle for a ten year transition period.•
