Bye bye jobs.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Well, those corporations can come on down to Tennessee where we don’t punish job-creators.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Who needs jobs ? The Marxist Boinycrats will give us all free $hit !

[17th Miss Regt]

the proposed tax hike would come with major pitfalls for wages, jobs and consumers’ pocketbooks.

Oh, my gosh! Is this even possible? B-b-b-but HOW?

[rstrahan]

When will people learn that every corporate and business tax get passed through to the consumer?

[PROCON]

I lived in Oregon for 17 years until recently.

There are 3 liberal, "progressive" counties that will pass this by a wide margin.

[From The Deer Stand]

Vote “yes” Oregonians and watch the price of your goods and services increase. Then whine about it.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Ignorance is as ignorance does.

[Tilted Irish Kilt]

(from the article):" They say it would tap a tiny portion of Oregon businesses
while bringing a huge boost to cash-strapped public education, health care and senior services."

The increases will fund more union members.
I guess we can expect Oregonians to Flee to California for tax relief.
Do I really need a sarcasm tag ?

[comebacknewt]

Idaho and Texas rejoice.

You may get Nike.

[Fungi]

Simple, the corporations affected should simply close shop and move outside state lines. See how that feels, stupid commie Oregonians.

[PROCON]

No, no, Nike is run by “progressives” and LOVES taxes, they’ll stay in Oregon and just raise the price of their already overpriced shoes.

[Angels27]

Wow!Is Oregon going to surpass California as the most business unfriendly state?

[fieldmarshaldj]

New construction, businesses and residents are all over the place here in Nashville.

[Salvation]

What other corporations might move?

Intel is pretty much in Arizona at this time.

[ClearCase_guy]

It’s OK — it’s just other peoples’ money.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

You elect communists, Marxist-lites and dumbassed Democrats and this is what you are going to get.

Get out of the way as companies flee the state.

Oregon, welcome to Obama’s unemployment program. You’ve earned it.
