I wonder if the factors that lead to our good business climate (i.e. lower business taxes) are responsible for our higher property taxes?

I bet the high property taxes everyone complains about are due to not having enough people in the state.

We may not like the high property taxes, but they sure are a nice federal tax deduction.
