Eugene Area Chamber of Commerce President Weighs in on Gov. Kotek’s Prosperity Initiative. A new statewide survey released Tuesday by Gov. Tina Kotek’s Prosperity Council found that most Oregonians believe high costs, taxes, and regulations are hurting businesses and limiting their ability to grow. In Eugene, local business leaders said taxes are a major concern, particularly Oregon’s corporate activity tax. From a commonsense standpoint, there’s nothin’ new here. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: The CAT tax was one of the worst things dreamed up by a Democrat legislature and signed into law by the Democrat in the governor’s mansion. Whether you as the consumer realize it or not, to some extent, the tax doesn’t stop with the business that’s bein’ gouged. It’s priced into the product and passed on to customers through higher prices.
