  It’s a ridiculous statute in my opinion, but this is also silly: > That means Copeland’s church gets a pass on what would otherwise be an annual property tax bill exceeding $150,000 — money that other local taxpayers must backfill to cover the cost of schools, police and firefighters. How on earth does this make sense? It’s not like there’s some divine requirement that an exact number of dollars must be paid and now everyone else is on the hook. Taxing rich people more is convenient and mostly accepted but come on, it’s 1 person, they aren’t using more schools/police/whatever.
