# Ground Rent Tax
|
||||
|
||||
## Definition
|
||||
|
||||
A tax specifically levied on the rent of land upon which buildings stand,
|
||||
which falls entirely upon the owner of the ground as a monopolist who exacts
|
||||
the maximum rent possible for the use of his land.
|
||||
|
||||
## Source Chapter
|
||||
|
||||
Book V, Chapter 2
|
||||
|
||||
## Context
|
||||
|
||||
Smith argues that ground rents are particularly suitable for taxation because
|
||||
they arise from the good government of the sovereign rather than from any
|
||||
effort by the landowner, and such a tax would not discourage industry or
|
||||
improvement.
