In this video, renowned Georgist Fred Harrison offers his take on globalization, which according to him is nothing new and nothing more than free trade. He explains the phenomenon by the natural propensity of human societies to interact and trade freely, a natural right dating back to neolithic times. It was not created by States and therefore should remain unhindered.
Blaming globalization for our economic woes only allows political elites to distract public opinions away from the real causes and delays badly needed fiscal reforms.
The root cause of our economic problems, as Harrison claims is our debilitating tax system that destroys employment opportunities and forces people to migrate in search of better opportunities abroad. This in turn generates resentment and rejection from host countries.
Therefore, the solution lies not in self-imposed austerity but in a better and fairer tax system that collects economic rent as envisioned by a long line of classical economists, from Adam Smith to Henry George. A tax system with the potential to motivate entrepreneurship, empower the working class and reduce income inequality.
