>>I agree with many of the arguments here about the theoretical impacts of a land value tax, especially the section "an LVT implicitly taxes improvements to nearby land" which is often overlooked or glossed over in these discussions.

That's a feature not a bug. The whole argument is that it's good to tax wealth that you didn't work for. It's surely more just than taxing labor or the improvement you have made yourself.
