I am always amazed by those that think ther vote as individual is more important than another individuals vote because of where they live. The population as a rule makes the laws by having a larger number of votes. The majority of individuals live in the valley. That is where the majority of laws come from and should. One vote for each person as it should be. I no longer live in Portland so though I can understand the sentiment facts are facts.
It would be better if the big cities set up laws for the cities to live by and let the rest of the state remain free. The system doesn't work that way but it should.
I understand your sentiment however I believe I speak for all Oregonians (at least on this forum) who, for that last however many years, have seen this once Great State go to he77 in a hand bag largely in part to the scourge of Kalifornians who have descended upon this once Great State over the last 30 + years and have literally shoved, demanded, pushed, taken, fought over or bought out anything they could to turn Oregon into the one of the worst bastions of liberalism in the country. If THEY can't have it or own it then they want it wrapped, packaged, bottled up and fenced off and admission charged for it's use.Very productive conversation people,
There is that. No doubt about it however no one could have predicted the political ramifications that followed.Guess who sold the californians the propery in the first place. Our.fellow Oregonian's allowed this to happen. Greed.
While this is partly true, it is mostly a false narrative.Guess who sold the californians the propery in the first place. Our.fellow Oregonian's allowed this to happen. Greed.
Standard of living and crime rates really have never been better in the state.
Pretty clesr that there were alot of oregonians willing to take advantage if californians with large bank rolls. We disagree. There was a lot of greed involved.While this is partly true, it is mostly a false narrative.
Sure, some sold their places because they were 'flipping' for a good price (not just the frothy mid 2k's), but in the majority of cases people were moving up to bigger and better properties, because they moved, for better employment, due to family issues, etc.
But in most all those cases (with the exception of those moving out of state), other in State properties were purchased by those same Oregonian's at the then market rates.
So to say it was all because of "Oregonian's greed" is just not correct.
Is thete any place today that
