Doing my taxes. Increase of about 30% from last year.

It Bloooooooooooows.

California is on the verge of bankruptcy so your taxes will be going up soon.

fret, you're just now figuring that out?

Just wait until Jerry gets elected. His first priority is to implement an environmental regulations nightmare that will ROCKET us to the poorhouse.

I can hardly wait.

No, I did see this coming a long time ago.

I'm waiting until the kid gets out of high school (2 years....) then I'm outta here.

Seriously, let these f*cking wackos have the place. No, I'm not talking about Shawn.

I hear you Fret, Californians have been migrating here to Oregon en mass since I was a kid. Now with their wonderful ideas our limited industry has gone to crap, and all we get is more govt. involvement in private business.

We used to have responsible timber harvests. Gone. We used to have more industry. Gone.

Their brilliant idea was to put all the eggs in the tourism and service industry basket.

And......Raise taxes.

Huh. Sorry 'bout that. You'd think the dumbasses would have learned.

HELL, THAT'S WHY THEY LEFT, AIN'T IT?

fret

This is all part of Mexico's plan to re-conquer California.

Drive the idiots into Oregon?

Wish they would have told them how nice Wa. is.

At least they don't hate businesses. We have the second highest tax rate in the US.

Other than the indigenous tribes, there was virtually no one in Oregon until about 130 years ago. That makes pretty much everybody here a newcomer.

How the hell, hell, did that that double post post happen?

That is true, but there is state of mind here much different than that of CAFornians.

And half my family came here on a wagon. GO RABBIT FARMERS!!!!
