Watch this clever animation of modern life and the insights gained when the big picture is considered. Animation is such an effective learning medium in our cluttered worlds. Life from all levels is analysed - except of course the big one - the monopolisation of land rents and how that drives sprawl, singularity and reduces our freedom to really do what we want to do.

Well boo hoo…..at least we can hum along to everyday life…. wait till we get some animations up like this. Any superstar musicians want to collaborate?

PS - Remind Me: the Affordable Housing & Community Land Trusts event is on this coming Monday.

With the recent passing of our number 1 ticket holder, Clyde Cameron, we were pleased to hear the ABC’s Phillip Adams replay the 1999 Late Night Live interview he held with the Honorable Clyde Cameron. It is a fascinating discussion with Clyde covering the foundation to his Georgist beliefs, involvement in the Henry George League of S.A and his disappointment at the ALP’s drift from its original intention to capture the community generated economic rent in lieu of all other taxes. Insights on ALP history and the Whitlam era abound in this fireside chat.

Download and listen to this essential piece of Australian Georgist history.

Make sure you watch this 7 minute expose on the Tax Clawback scam. Some of you may recognise Ross Ashcroft from our Comics of Economics night earlier in the year. Check Earthsharing’s YouTube channel to keep in touch with Australia’s latest. We have a few goodies coming up soon too.
