hilariously poor presenter, confused participants (at least up until 7.42 when I gave up), unbearably bad audio. A real gem (not).

must have been the genetically altered corn in the bread...seriously don't you think that housing is confusing the heck out of a lot of people> Especially those growing numbers on the streets

The tool Robert Burchell has not mentioned is to exempt property improvements in favor land taxing land values. This will bring down land costs and stimulate land owners either to sell land they are sitting on or develop it to generate cash flow (and, by the way, create jobs). E.J. Dodson

I am a believer in Binary Economics, but I think Robert Burchell has it right, as far as the opening for the Just Third Way in many communities... People only want help when things spin out of control and when things go very, very south... I mean, everyone wanted Green Energy when gas was at $5, but now everyone is pretty much going back to what they were doing. Same thing with American Capitalism, people only started serious discussion on true fixes when this crisis hit, not before.

Keep in mind this was Bob Burchell's first exposure to binary economics and I am certain that with more time both Norman or Robert Ashford could explain why it is in the interest of even the successful areas to incorporate diverse ownership. Henry George considers land distribution but binary accesses the social tool of credit just opening it for all. I want to find out more about that head of the department of City Planning at UC Berkeley that was working with binary economic ideas.
