          George based his theory around *ground rents*. The age of the McMansion and a system where Uncle Sam owns 80% of all mortages would baffle him.

          No, these mcmansions are worthless precisely because nobody wants to live where they are. Urban land is accruing more and more rents. Fannie freddie would def not be baffling, more like a twisted nightmare for George
