Would you be willing to pay more taxes to solve Eugene’s budget issue? A whoppin’ 93% said no. While the question asks about Eugene, it can be linked to the larger levels of Oregon’s government – counties and the state itself. These combined entities spend WAY too much money ($7 billion every year) on bums and wetbacks. There’re two ways to fix their budgets: 1. Cut back on what they give the illegal aliens and the homeless. It only acts like a magnet, attracting more of ’em to the state. 2. Instead of bendin’ over the business community every chance they get, all levels of government need to be business-friendly. This’ll attract more employers, which brings in more employees who pay taxes, increasing revenue.
