Jeff Bezos owns a ton of land personally in and around Van Horn as well. Between him and Gates, it's staggering how much land these billionaires are buying.
That's why these companies must be broken down and nobody should be a billionaire.
How do you imagine this happening? What would happen is that they would still own everything they have today, but in a more complex legal form.
The typical thinking is mandatory confiscation of assets by the government.
The government, the biggest billionaire around.
As someone who lived in a communist country, I can predict you that it would not go well and as intended.
This is why we need land taxes.
Billionaires/bigcorps are probably better-able to afford taxed land than non-billionaires, and/or make profit from the land to offset the tax. Adding a tax-liability to land might effectively push more of it into the hands of corporates.
Not if they’re just speculating on it
The Van Horn property is primarily for Blue Origin, and I believe most is under the Blue Origin LLC, not him directly.
