If we own too much land we are violating the land rights of other people

Definition of land rights: We have a right not to be in the presence of those who violate the Lockean proviso. We have a right not to be in the presence of hyper land-wealthy people. Excessive land wealth is a violation of the land rights of others.

A land value ceiling would improve land inequality

The political right can have no reasonable objection to the imposition of a land value ceiling or limit... because land is finite.

Geolibertarianism is the only solution to land inequality

Unlike other forms of inequality land inequality is a civic and political problem (we are justified to take action...) because land ownership denies to others access to land. Other forms of wealth do not make third parties less wealthy. Land inequality can be resolved by geolibertarianism. We are justified to take action by failing to continue to recognise (no longer recognising) certain land claims. Defending these obsolete land claims will then be seen as an aggressive act.

Planing permission might not always be welcomed if there is a land value ceiling

If there is a land value ceiling or land value tax... it might not be in your interests to be given planning permission which will drive up the value of your land.

It is illegal to make your own home because of planning laws

If there is a land shortage (and no land value tax) no amount of work will enable the purchase of land.
