Seems to be either standard property taxes listed (with a bit of variation) or minor deployments as experiments?
That's the gist of why I was comparing it to communist economics - it works great in small communities, but when either the scale is large, and/or the stakes are high, it will be subject to inefficiency and corruption.
LVT experiments on the small scale have people highly invested in making it work. On the large scale, this will just be a matter of everyday bureaucracy and any competence will revert to the mean.
On the large scale, it will be subject to the exact same corruption seen elsewhere. Certain industries will carve out exceptions to the tax, certain people with influence will get their historical properties excluded, etc.
By and large I've heard of LVT being a replacement for Sales/VAT style taxes. Whilst those are often regressive, at least they are relatively simple, 20% VAT is 20% VAT.
