Those are the "land" of the modern economy. Land value tax arguably may have made sense for a 19th century economy; I think it's completely missing the point for a 21st century one. Land isn't the major source of wealth any more.
I feel like someone watched a Gundam series (reader's choice!) and saw space colonies and endless space war as aspirational. How the heck are you supposed to assess and collect taxes on O'Neill cylinders or moon bases?
