I understand why they had happen what they did and they do need to rectify it.
They budgeted like the stock market tax gains would never stop and they got burned.

It is a spending problem. A balanced budget amendment and a bond to be paid off would be the only way to avoid state bankruptcy that I could see them doing.

I think anything in the Oregon budget that could be cut would probably come close to 10% of the needed Billion plus dollars.

So you accept without question the Rat/RINO claim that those billions were "needed"?

So the 10 Oregon Republicans who voted to raise taxes instead of rein in spending were wrong to do so, correct?
