That a good system is something that arises outside of our attempt to control it. So how do we allow this extremely complex, organic system to arise? Well the basic guideline, heavily simplified, is something like "Don't control anyone but yourself."
This is a frame that also works but I don't feel like it invalidates the tax and redistribute frame either.

I'd argue that if you're only taxing the rental value of land and paying an equal dividend to all citizens then you're not "redistributing" anything. If there's no means testing on either end it's a completely different frame.

So, lets get this right, there is no such thing as home ownership, just really long term "renting" and property taxes are a form of rent control,even in homes with 100+ years of hereditary ownership. And yet you think property taxes are re-distributed. How are the police funded?
