To take land values for public purposes is not really to impose a tax, but to take for public purposes a value created by the community. And out of the fund which would thus accrue from the common property, we might, without degradation to anybody, provide enough to actually secure from want all who were deprived of their natural protectors or met with accident, or any man who should grow so old that he could not work. All prating that is heard from some quarters about its hurting the common people to give them what they do not work for is humbug. The truth is, that anything that injures self-respect, degrades, does harm; but if you give it as a right, as something to which every citizen is entitled to, it does not degrade. Charity schools do degrade children that are sent to them, but public schools do not.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=bookitem&rft.atitle=The+Crime+of+Poverty&rft.btitle=Our+Land+and+Land+Policy%3A+Speeches%2C+Lectures+and+Miscellaneous+Writings&rft.pages=%3Cspan+class%3D%22nowrap%22%3E217-%3C%2Fspan%3E218&rft.pub=Doubleday+and+McClure+Company&rft.date=1901&rft.isbn=978-0526825431&rft.aulast=George&rft.aufirst=Henry&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ABurlington%2C+Iowa" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-15"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-15">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222" /><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.netstate.com/states/intro/ia_intro.htm">"The State of Iowa – An Introduction to the Hawkeye State from"</a>.
