See how land shapes the economy
A growing collection of free, interactive tools. Drag a slider, hover a data point, build a city — and watch how rising land values quietly eat into wages and capital, and how sharing land rent changes everything.
These tools are teaching models, not forecasts. The numbers are illustrative — chosen to make the underlying economics visible, not to predict any particular economy.
The Value Map
Drop a train station, a park, a school onto a city grid and watch the surrounding land light up with value. The buildings never change — proof that location value is created by the community.
Open tool →The Margin of Production
The engine behind it all. Drag population and technology upward and watch rent swallow the gains from progress while wages flatline at the margin — Ricardo’s Law of Rent, made visible.
Open tool →Where Does the Wealth Go?
Split total output into wages, returns to capital, and land rent. Grow the economy and watch rent’s slice expand — then flip the switch that returns land rent to everyone as a dividend.
Open tool →The Productivity–Wage Gap
Workers produce more every year, but wages stopped following. See the widening gap between productivity and pay — and why that gap is land rent.
Open tool →Inequality vs. Density
Plot real countries: the denser the land, the steeper the inequality — except where land rent is captured for the public. Find the outliers that break the trend.
Open tool →Your Land Dividend
Enter your income and housing cost to see how much you pay into land rent today — and how a Citizen’s Dividend funded by land-value capture would change your bottom line.
