Land Matters:
First, I am no fan of LVT: it ends up 'sweating the assets' and, so, ruining the Land's fertility.
The Co-operative Socialist alternative is Co-operative Careship (roughly, 'A Fully Repairing Lease, Plus Remediation'.
As to taxation or expropriation: neither.
The solution is to abolish the 'Ownership' (Ie Theft) if Economic Resources and introduce that concept of Co-operative Careship, time-limited, non-transferable, renewable only by Community Agreement, subject to demonstrable Co-operative Care, through submission if suitable Annual Co-operative Audits.
And rent-free.
Due to not-sweating-the-assets point, above.
The world needs a new, nonviolent, non-trashing, economic and social system: wholosophy is a term I use (web-search for more). Here's a Blog that suggests what that Better New World could look like - a co-operative, fair-world, not-hierarchical possibility - based on an ethic and practice of peace, nonviolence minimized harm and maximized well-being. And by Tuesday! For more - please ask for a Reader - from the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives
