The success of Mauritius over the last 40yrs has put George theory in the humbug basket. As a French colony it never did very well, at least not for the natives. The French administration was biased, corrupt, and heavily preferential to France. After 1968, the country became a free-trade state with a competent and honest government. Land taxes would not have paid for anything because of the huge variations in the price of sugar and vanilla. The availability of labor and the safety of investments compared to the rest of Africa, has seen the country's annual growth rate beat 3% since the 1970s. Europe's economy in the Middle Age was based entirely on land and crop tax. City enterprises were rarely taxed. It was the ruination of the masses, not their salvation.14.203.207.166 (talk) 22:09, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The entire section reads like a smug wilful misinterpretation of Stiglitz's views to validate an agenda, instead of the neutral presentation of facts it ought to be. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.17.58.161 (talk) 09:41, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This new book needs adding.^[1] With best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 19:14, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This information has been reverted, with the following edit summary: " UNDUE". I think it is relevant and should be included.

Stiglitz supports the Green New Deal. In 2019, he wrote that "The Green New Deal would stimulate demand, ensuring that all available resources were used; and the transition to the green economy would likely usher in a new boom. Trump’s focus on the industries of the past, like coal, is strangling the much more sensible move to wind and solar power. More jobs by far will be created in renewable energy than will be lost in coal."^[1]
