Ricardo's Law by Fred Harrison
In this expose of the tax system, Fred Harrison explains why the gap between rich and poor, and rich areas and poor areas, continues to widen, defeating the best intentions of governments, and argues that Economists and policy-makers choose to ignore the Law of Rent, or 'Ricardo's Law'.
