Getting to do this lecture -- which sought to provide a structural explanation for why urban public services in America struggle despite the high productivity of our private sector -- was such a thrill! law.yale.edu/yls-today/news/…

🚨New episode!🚨No @samuelmoyn this time, but all to the good as the great @daskeel and I got to nerd out about the Puerto Rico debt crisis and his fabulous new book Promi$e Land! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
Yes, but promoters of land value taxes should be skeptical of localism. A local LVT paired with extensive local land use power is likely to lead to stricter zoning, as the revenue gain from allowing building declines (but there is an increase in service users)
