Thank you, it was refreshing to listen to this given there is almost no serious policy discussion in the media on the eve of this election. Things I would like answered if Steven comes back:

- what about land value tax?

- what about carbon tax?

- how should vehicles be taxed in a world of EVs?

- why do a small number of European countries manage to stay close to the frontier with a very high tax burden, whereas Europe in general seems overtaxed, sclerotic etc? Do they just have incredible governance?

- what grade would Steven give my personal fantasy tax systems (10-15% business and income taxes, $100 carbon tax, 1% land value tax, 10% GST targeting a tax:GDP ratio of about 25%)?
