I like the idea of a hot potato effect caused by taxes that match the 'real' value of an asset. This should apply not just to real assets (like houses) but the current commodity value of a 'future' in any other value.
I had desired such a tool relative to speculation on the stock markets (and at the time postulated that requiring whoever 'owned' a future __must__ receive it when it comes due); however the idea of taxing that invested value while it is held seems to be an even cleaner way of handling the problem.
