I know I will get flamed for this.

But maybe, just maybe it is time for Oregonians to start thinking about a sales tax.

Consider yourself flamed. Burned to a crisp. Nothing but ash.

Okay, I'll bite. What is the reasoning behind your assertion?

Come now. If you are going to advocate additional taxation, you should at least explain why.

I think about it frequently. Then I go clean my CAR-15.

I'd trade the income tax for a sales tax, straight across, just to get the State tax pukes out of my personal affairs - but there's no way I'd vote for both at the same time, even if I were promised a "transition period". There'd have to be an end-to-end substitution, period.

Sales taxes are great, by themselves, though - they make socialist Lieberals whine and scream about "regressive taxes" - music to my ears.

MEANwhile... Howcome nobody is posting phone numbers to call in the State Capitol, here? That's what I was hoping to find here... Or is it too late? (Or have we just all given up like good little go-along-to-get-along RINOs?).
