What reading level is A Colonists Plea for Land Nationalisation book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Granting that there are many things that swallow up much of the surplus that would otherwise come to the farmer; heavy taxes, injudicious laws, bad roads, scarce labour; all these matter nothing (as a great writer says) so long as behind them stands something which swallows all that is left. So long as that something stands waiting with open mouth, abolishing any of these only leaves so much more for it to swallow.
Some people shrink from these conclusions saying, " it is a hard doctrine " (as ...if truths could be dodged by shrinking from them. ) Others say that the remedy is the fixing of a fair rent.
But what is meant by a fair rent ?
If Brown objects to his present rent of 100, saying it is to6 high, and should be reduced to 80, and yet Jones is standing by prepared to give 100, why should the rent be reduced ? Why should Jones be forbidden to have what he is ready to give 100 for, in order that Brown should have it for 80 ? It is fair neither to Jones nor to the landlord whatever it may be to Brown.
