Land value tax is self-limiting because the base is fixed. Land rent is what it is; you can't inflate it by changing the rate. George's single tax had a natural ceiling built in. Commodity taxes are self-limiting because high rates produce smuggling and substitution. The bootlegger caps the rate. User fees are self-limiting because they have to pass a benefit test. You can't toll a road nobody uses. Pigouvian taxes are self-limiting because they're supposed to shrink their own base. A carbon tax that works collects less over time. So there's a structural property here: each revenue source is anchored to something real, and none can be expanded arbitrarily. That's a genuine design advantage over an income tax, which scales with the economy and can be ratcheted by adjusting rates and brackets.
