It is, indeed, singular to say that Mr. George, during the last twenty-five years of his life devoted himself exclusively to a discussion of land value, without ever knowing what land value was. He never pushed the analysis into the zone of determining how it arose. With him it always was: "that which is gained by general growth and improvement of the community. " In Social Problems, p. 292, he thus speaks of it : "What can be more in accordance with justice than that the value of land, which i...s not 26 created by individual effort, but arises from the existence and growth of society, should be taken by society for social needs? * * * The value of land only arises as in the integra- tion of society, the need for some public or common revenue begins to be felt. It increases as the development of society goes on, and as larger and larger revenues are required. " Again he says (p. 295) : "As individuals come together in communi- ties, and society grows integrating more and more its individual members, and making gen- eral interests and general conditions of more and more relative importance, there arises, ever and above the value which individuals can cre- ate for themselves, a value which is created by the community as a whole, and which attaching to land, becomes tangible, definite and capable of computation, and appropriation.
