Bring the Paine

Who is the greatest Anglo-American of all time and why is it Thomas Bring The Paine?

It's actually Benedict Arnold


Or at least that's what legacy media would say today

Such was Locke's influence that Thomas Jefferson wrote: "Bacon, Locke and Newton... I consider them as the three greatest men that have ever lived, without any exception, and as having laid the foundation of those superstructures which have been raised in the Physical and Moral sciences".[18][19][20]

Paine was a twat,
Does Jackson count? His parents were of Scottish extraction.

Also Fater Charles Coughlin and Sen. McCarthy, both of Irish extraction, but still based as fuck

Bacon, Locke and Newton are just Anglos Pure Blighty. ITT we talk about Abglo-Americans.

no to mention them noting Arnold was actually a muslim man who stood up for his beliefs in the face of American tyranny!

Also Thomas Jefferson was half black and George Washington's actual wife was a strongg, thicc, independent islamic black womyn #knowyourhistory #woke

>Paine was a twat
Expand, pz, colonial bro

...

Supported the French revolution
He was also so hated only like 4 people went to his funeral

The reason of the hatred was because he attacked Christianity much more openly than the 'deists' iirc

He supported the French Revolution, all the degeneracy that took place. I think he advocated for too much liberalism, the kind that breed the downfall of nations.

This too, he hated Christianity and was an anti papist swine I'm catholic btw >:^)

Him and Henry George are true American heros

single tax is societies liberator

french revolution was awesome what the fuck ??

French Revolution is considered to be a 'leftist' meme by conservative/religious folk, its natural for them to hate it.

When Paine enters the Continental Congress, Liberty Bell production in all colonies is increased by value of the current tax rate.

which is a pretty good perk.

>french revolution was awesome what the fuck ??
What was awesome about it?

Citizen's dividend is a proposed policy based upon the principle that the natural world is the common property of all persons (see Georgism). It is proposed that all citizens receive regular payments (dividends) from revenue raised by leasing or taxing the monopoly of valuable land and other natural resources. In its modern broader sense, a citizen's dividend is another designation for universal basic income.

Pain was Geolibertarian

The problem is land goes up and down in value
We were giving away land in the 1800s

the basic premise is that the land itself only derives value from the community built around it therefor the rent extracted from the land should belong to the community not the landlord

exclusive use /= ownership

ok but recent immigrants are not the ones that build the community
The ones that built the community had the opportunity for cheap/free land

When the state granted land titles to a fraction of the population, it gave that fraction devices with which to levy, and pocket, tolls on the fruits of the labor of others. Those without land privileges must either buy or rent those privileges from the people who received the grants or from their assignees. Thus the state titles enable large landowners to collect a transfer payment, or "free lunch" from the actual land users.

>to a fraction of the population
But they didnt
Anyone could have gone and homesteaded

So you think land becomes private property when one mixes one's labor with it. And mixing what is yours with what is not yours in order to own the whole thing is considered great sport. But the notion is filled with problems. How much labor does it take to claim land, and how much land can one claim for that labor? And for how long can one make that claim?

According to classical liberals, land belonged to the user for as long as the land was being used, and no longer. But according to royal libertarians, land belongs to the first user, forever. So, do the oceans belong to the heirs of the first person to take a fish out or put a boat in? Does someone who plows the same field each year own only one field, while someone who plows a different field each year owns dozens of fields? Should the builder of the first transcontinental railroad own the continent? Shouldn't we at least have to pay a toll to cross the tracks? Are there no common rights to the earth at all? To royal libertarians there are not, but classical liberals recognized that unlimited ownership of land never flowed from use, but from the state:

A right of property in movable things is admitted before the establishment of government. A separate property in lands not till after that establishment....

He who plants a field keeps possession of it till he has gathered the produce, after which one has as good a right as another to occupy it. Government must be established and laws provided, before lands can be separately appropriated and their owner protected in his possession. Till then the property is in the body of the nation.

--Thomas Jefferson

Sure but why should that stay with them forever? Just because they got it first?

We are libertarians who make the classical liberal distinction between land, labor and capital. We believe in the private possession of land without interference from the state, but in the community collection of land rent to prevent monopolization of land.
We believe that all government activities should at least be limited to those which increase the value of land by more than what the government collects, and that government should be funded entirely from the land value increases it creates.

We oppose direct state monopolization of land as well as state-sanctioned private monopolization of land, and advocate that state and federally held land pay land rent to the communities the same as private land.

We advocate that government be allowed to spend only what is authorized by voter referendum or similar device and that it take for itself the minimum it is authorized to spend. Those who advocate collection of the full rent stipulate that the proceeds be divided among community members on a per-capita or similar basis, for the land, and the rent, belong to the people, not the state.

We condemn the taxation of property improvements, and of all activities, productive, consumptive, or recreational, as invasions by the state into the private affairs of free individuals.
