'MPE™ 114' — LAND
By work, we may prospectively add to the value of land. But no person creates land, even by building levees around subaquatic property.
Land nonetheless is regularly made an instrument of unearned gain, even to the degree that usual individuals are ultimately compelled to pay lifetime after lifetime for properties produced by but a few months' of work.
If you desire unearned gain, you have its consequences. On the other hand, to eradicate unearned gain so that we can procure production with an equal measure of our own production, we must heed the alternate concept of a right to enjoy land at no more cost than the value added to it.
There are of course further obligations. We must dedicate land to its best use, versus letting unearned gain and lack of planning distribute it in ways which in fact are quite adverse to us. If land is to be a reusable resource, we must recognize obligations to preserve its virtues and use to the future.
