Oregon is a screwup state ....my dtr just moved there and loves Portland but thats because she is young with no children and her and her husband can live it up.....

but soon enough they will feel the oppressive tax burden....the quicker the better...

they have a state income tax, they have those funny guys who MUST pump your gas, you can only go 65mph on a 4 lane highway along the gorge with vast open areas, and their property taxes are spiralling up ....

Statist....enjoy your rewards....

I’ll be honest, I love Oregon because it has no sales tax. I own a small independent retail shop and not collecting other people’s taxes is just alright with me.

But the writing is on the wall, Oregon doesn’t want small business and entrepreneurs. What they want is big government, big labor and big business squeezing the peasants.

God help you if you don’t toe their politically correct line and swear fealty to the educated elite masters.

Well now - the tax on my property in Oregon has gone down the last two years in a row (because the market value has declined).

My income tax went down to zero (because I moved out).
