Literally false. In high-cost areas the land value is the bulk of the value of a property. Properties that would have a high LVT burden are almost definitionally those where the structure on top of the land is of little or negative value. Negative-value buildings are extremely common in high-cost areas today.
I struggle to believe you’re actually having a hard time understanding this point, but “the people” who produce high land values are not the people who capture those land values. That’s the point. Just because they’re both “people” doesn’t mean they’re fungible in the question of who earned what.
It seems you have already made up your mind. Good luck in life.
Seems irrelevant as real property needs land to exist on and is just a vehicle for use. In the vast majority of the cases, the property is sold with the land and is preserved, meaning the land value is mostly inconsequential when already built on except in a small number of cases.
"Physical coercion is much more common to enforce evictions than nonpayment of taxes."
We were talking about seizing property. Renters do not own the property, the landlord does. That's an important distinction when talking about seizing property.
"2) the surroundings of that land (nearby amenities, infrastructure, employers, etc)"
Based on what people made it, just like I said.
"They are not entitled to upside they did not produce."
We live in a world with other people. Their tax dollars produced that infrastructure. They maintained their property. It's so odd to think that someone's else did your work for you, as if you never maintained property or paid taxes.
