@T and A Man - I think you are right. I am reading alot about Henry George at the moment. And he was the leading thinker in this area. His story is pretty interesting. His ideas lay at the roots of the game of 'Monopoly', and 100 years ago he was a best selling author. His ideas about the reform of land ownership and taxation were radical and very popular.
He even ran for Mayor of New York - and came second. This is interesting since he beat Teddy Rooseveldt (the future president) into third place by a long distance.

It is all interesting stuff. And I will probably start a thread on it once I have researched this area some more.
I just want to throw this out there. It is something we can discuss in a separate thread. Since this thread is about investment advice and not economics. I think WestCoast is correct that it is better to discuss the morality and wider economic issues elsewhere.
