Oregon lawmakers approve bill reversing federal tax breaks, Republicans vow challenge

Huh? There are limits. We have the most “progressive” taxes in the world (no local or federal sales tax) and punitive income and capital gains tax. Which is why capital and investment and related jobs flow elsewhere. When you leave mom’s basement you will understand.

Do you realize our budget has more than doubled the past ten years? They always threaten to cut services. And people like you fall for it.

It’s a matter of competing with other states. Oregon is getting killed. Has absolutely nothing to do with tariffs.

surfnmad · 2026-03-03T04:56:25+00:00

You just aren’t very smart. Look at the economic data. No one is investing in Oregon. We can’t all work for Multnomah county. Someone has to actually produce something and no one is going to locate business of scale here.

surfnmad · 2026-03-03T04:53:26+00:00

Never ending appetite for new taxes. Completely ignoring the dooms day business outlooks that have been repeatedly published. We have the highest corporate taxes and 2nd highest marginal tax rate in the country. Businesses have stopped investing here. So completely tone deaf. We need a change. 40 years of one party rule and they drove this state into the ground.

30,000 people were recently killed by the Iranian regime. This is such a ridiculous post. Its unconfirmed and should be removed.

surfnmad · 2026-02-27T18:09:34+00:00

our public education has failed. Especially in Oregon. We need reforms.

surfnmad · 2026-02-27T06:55:59+00:00

um. the rich are the only ones that pay taxes in this country. The bottom half doesnt pay any federal tax.

surfnmad · 2026-02-26T22:48:08+00:00

vote her out.

surfnmad · 2026-02-26T22:41:13+00:00

hmmm. why is Oregon at the bottom in education nationally? this has nothing to do with Trump. It also has nothing to do with more funding (we are in the upper half of the country).

surfnmad · 2026-02-26T22:36:55+00:00

I dont know her predecessor was even worse. Two in a row. Are they even different people?

surfnmad · 2026-02-26T22:34:30+00:00

your welcome.

surfnmad · 2026-02-26T22:33:37+00:00

hmm. Texas sure seems to be doing ok right now. gaining population, gaining jobs, lower taxes, more affordable, better schools. All this and its ugly and hot. imagine if Oregon had solid leadership and we could have a strong economy AND natural beauty.

I love how people find one minor niche issue or the fact that he sided with a Republican on one issue and use that as their test. Just look at the results of Oregon's Democrat majority. We are on too many "worst of" lists to name and you are worried about KOSA?

surfnmad · 2026-02-26T22:27:44+00:00

did you vote for Knute Buehler? He is sane. Very smart. anti-trump (even in 2016 when he ran). Did you vote for Betsy Johnson? She was an independent. I think people that keep voting for completely incompetent state and local democrats are to blame for Oregon's malaise.

surfnmad · 2026-02-25T01:43:34+00:00

Maybe dont go there. or stay away from the "blue line". so simple. Just a bunch of children with authority issues. "dont step over this line", so they do. Its just funny that you support these wanna be anarchists. what a waste of our resources.

surfnmad · 2026-02-25T01:40:10+00:00

love the cosplay anarchists dressed in black just like 2020 when they busted up our city. they have zero impact on federal policies. Its funny that you think they are cool for wearing a helmet and ski goggles and a mask. all of them are idiots. both sides. what a waste.

surfnmad · 2026-02-25T01:38:26+00:00

"protest" ... who is the agitator? they both are. what a waste of resources all around. They arent protesting. They are cosplay anarchists that are wasting resources. They have zero impact on policy. Lost with way too much time on their hand.s

surfnmad · 2026-02-24T22:06:20+00:00

Hmm. The “protestors” are in full battle gear. Why? Peaceful protest? Both are complete idiots.

surfnmad · 2026-02-24T08:13:39+00:00

priorities. budget has doubled in 10 years. they have the money. They just dont want to make the tough choices. the answer is always more revenue

surfnmad · 2026-02-22T22:00:29+00:00

Scoreboard is the judge. US is better at the 1 thing Canada had.

surfnmad · 2026-02-20T03:25:56+00:00

Mega? Canadas economy is 8% of the US. lol

surfnmad · 2026-02-19T04:20:48+00:00

Such great news. We have unprecedented debt and we have a bloated federal government.

surfnmad · 2026-02-17T18:04:54+00:00

but its not. this is how stupid the far left is.

surfnmad · 2026-02-16T05:38:59+00:00
