And so it starts !!
WINSTON, Ore. -- The owner of a struggling restaurant said passage of Measure 67 will be the death blow for his diner.
Nic Scevers said the taxes imposed by Measure 67 will force him to close Carrie's Diner in Winston, Ore. He said the restaurant was struggling before voters approved the measure but said the added money he will owe on taxes this year cemented his decision to close.

("Even a small business like this, I have had my accountant give us a slight estimate of what it will cost us and it will be close to 10 grand a year just for that one tax," he said.
That tax amount is for both Carrie's Diner and Karen's Coffee in Roseburg, Ore. Karen's Coffee will remain open, although Scevers said he has cut employee hours.
