Further evidence that liberalism is a mental illness...

Portland -- a city with too much time on their hands, and too much taxpayer's money to squander...

De-fund the left......

Isn't Portland the city that gave us the stupid and racist Chief Moose of Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C. fame?

Semper Fi

Unfortunately it's not just Portland, there is a garbage dunp near Seattle that was forced by code to have a piece of artwork designed for it. Hundreds of thousands of dollars to grace a dump.

Amazing.

Yes, and Portland is also crying because their schools are underfunded. They're talking about raising taxes to fund gold-plated administrator salaries.

Oh, and the $600K for the "art", well, here in the Northwest we have these goofy little "1% for art" rules that force the taxpayers to fund gawd-awful monstrosities that we all have to stare at. It's a popular pastime among conservatives to guess exactly which illegal drug or combination of drugs the "artiste" was on at the time of the "inspiration" for the alleged art.
