Mayor to Walmart: Pay for Your Own Security | Fox Business
The Beech Grove Walmart story raises the controversy over what are called “tax increment financing districts.” In these districts carved out to cover the area in which a local Walmart store sits, the store does not have to pay property taxes for about 25 years
Walmart is draining our resources, it’s bleeding us. They only pay property taxes into the local taxing district, not back to us in the town.
...I don’t think Walmart does a good enough job of controlling who comes in their store and what they do when they come in their store.
would be the exact people who would whine nonstop if Walmart stopped greasy, dirty, tattoo freaks like the one who participated in the event in question, and told them they were not welcome in the store.
Can anybody put a number to how much Police resources have to be devoted to a store like this? I understand it's pretty significant.
Well, isn't this an interesting little tidbit:
So the people arguing they should be able to deduct the cost of hiring their own security from their property taxes don't have much to hang that argument on now.
More corporate welfare for a company that makes billions and still has $3 billion a year for Sam's kids.
