Word games aside, I'd pay for land if I'd make money by doing so.

Suppose that I own a building. I may, or may not, pay for the land it sits on.

In the "land value is taxed 100%" regime, it doesn't make sense for land owners to charge rent because govt takes the "land rent".

%100% of 0 is 0.

I'm pretty sure that they'll figure out some way to get compensated. If they can't, no one will bother to own land.
