Some mineral and timber rights require using them if you buy them.

In that case, though, doesn't the winner of the auction also get some benefit in addition to just the tax revenue? With land, for example, I assume that the winner would have rights to do things with the land beyond that of just a random person.

If I'm understanding the career tax agent idea correctly, it's different in that the agent receives no benefit aside from the tax revenue. So I'm curious whether there's an existing system that works that way.
