Georgism is an ideology.

They think the LVT will solve all social problems ever. That’s the premise of the book he wrote about it.

This comment doesn’t have any value.

let me use it for capitalism:

Capitalism is an ideology.

They think the market will solve all problems ever.

He’s basically like Marx, but instead of charging for the use of something, he thinks taxing work and output will solve all society’s problems. Like communists, Capitalists think if you just understand economy and BELIEVE poverty will disappear.

Capitalism has a lot of merits, but it has lots of drawbacks. It’s difficult to punish someone for working, for one. It would also be highly inaccurate in the case of different amount of use of resources.
