Where there’s tons of land, it’s not that valuable. LVT would be low. It would only be punitive to people with a lot of land (per person) in those spots that are valuable because of those restaurants, culture, jobs, etc. nearby.

I don't really disagree with the LVT tax idea, I just want people to be clear about hoarding and single family homes. In regards to pushing single family homes out of high value areas, then LVT does make sense.
That said, I'm a crazy pro individualism and no tax no government guy, so I have no real place in this thread. : p

If you move rural you're not hoarding. If your holding a small single family home in the core of a dense city where lots of jobs are, you are hoarding.
That land would probably serve society better if it had more than a single family dwelling on it, you could have 10 families in walking distance of their jobs rather than one, and 9 families commuting via car.
Now that I'm remote, I plan to move to a rural area and grow some of my own food in a single family home. I don't think that should be considered hoarding.
