Brown,

  • 1998 - Comment on by Stanley Sapiro. Reprinted from GroundSwell, January-February:
    "San Francisco Mayor Willie l. Brown, Jr. got his start in politics by defeating a dedicated follower of Henry George, Edward Gaffney, for his Assembly seat. But Brown, too, embraced the Single Tax idea, and introduced a bill calling for local options on exempting buildings from property taxes. He became an all-powerful Speaker of the California Assembly, after which he became somewhat cool to Henry George's ideas. Possibly, this was related to his law firm's getting such unexpected clients as the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, the biggest landowner in the State (owning over 2 million acres)."

  • 1914 - Introduction to the Single Tax,
    in Single Tax: Debaters' Handbook Series. Quote:
    "It is very recently, indeed, that political eocnomists have thought it within the proprieties to devote much attention to Single Tax discussions. This explains why so much of the available printed matter on Single Tax has been written by Single Tax propagandists, and so little of the meager literature of opposition by the economists."
