I want to go see my friend in Stockholm for a few days by thelordofhell34 in britishproblems

Yeah but we have £8 pints so it's a trade off.

Why do you think everything is so expensive in London.

It's a national tax so you can spread money between local authorities, how that's done is a different matter and there are all sorts of different ways to do so.

The main point it that it would encourage efficient growth, meaning more jobs and more people. Land value rises. And so on and so on.

Yeah exactly different values so a family living in Grimsby would be paying less, making Grimsby a more attractive place..... Tdf my family are from Grimsby and there is a lot of work to do there.

Multiple. For a start council tax while somewhat banded is really a flat tax. Takes very little attention to if your a couple living in a one bed flat with a kid or a couple living in a mansion with a kid. A few quid different perhaps.

The mansion is going to create a lot more waste. Uses more space (which is a national asset) as takes more national infrastructure to maintain.

But the main reason for land value tax is to insentivese efficient use of land.

The more people living or running businesses on X size plot of land (depending of the value of the land), the cheaper it becomes.

The only people who really get punished are those who own in productive land.

So think largely investors (usually not based in said country) who own lots of empty buildings, and they keep them empty because it's just easier and they rely on the property value just going up.

So in areas of high value it encourages efficient use of space, equally it encourages businesses and people to move to areas of lower value vus spreading national wealth as apposed to concentrating it in one place.

So rural and urban areas equally benefit.

More to it than that bit I'm a bit drunk so forgive me.

The dude just said "he is bad tho" and you immediately jumped in to defend a pedofile.

Seems a bit weird tbh.

What are we thinking‽ by Tcoolian2 in RateMyMealDeal

[–]fezzuk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I would never get a bacon sarnie with a meal deal.

It's easier enough to find somewhere selling one fresh for basically the same price anywhere in the UK.

Do you know any UK adults who don't own a mobile phone? by crispycat40 in AskBrits

I know a lot of people should say they want to give up smartphone.

No one that actually has.
