Whatever Happened to Henry George?

[peristaltor]

I very recently finished a pretty darned good book, Henry George's Progress and Poverty from 1879. In it, he asks some serious questions of the class of scholars then known as "political economists," specifically why more people starve where civilization is most developed, and not less.

So much lost in history. I had no idea this is the roots of progressive politics.
