It’s totally just a matter of opinion, but I would argue that property tax (and especially LVT) is perhaps the only type of tax that is completely logical. It is the most justifiable form of tax, since the core role of the government is to enforce your property rights. They will come and arrest someone who is on your property without your permission. Paying for that is the most natural way you could pay a government. Stuff like sales tax and income tax is awkward, easy to game, and very messy. These types of non property taxes have nothing to do with the government’s core functions, and require a huge amount of effort spent on surveillance, reporting, enforcement, and lawyering.
