Culture wars?

National Insurance, Taxation and the Land
This article, criticising any 'hypothecated' tax to pay for the NHS, has opened my eyes to the regressive nature of National Insurance as a tax mechanism.
Thanks to Richard Murphy for that. Evidently tax reform is needed.

I am interested in some kind of 'Georgist' tax - i.e. a tax on land. Not least for the positive effects it might have on the housing problem. To what extent is local council tax such a tax?
