Big-box retailers are slashing their property taxes through a legal loophole
I wouldn&#x27;t call this a &quot;loophole&quot;; I&#x27;d call it property taxes working exactly the way they&#x27;re supposed to work.<p>I mean, they&#x27;re <i>property</i> taxes, not <i>business</i> taxes -- isn&#x27;t it obvious that they should be based on the value of the property, not based on the success of the business which uses the property.
