[Q]: Something you may be missing, Elmore.  If a dog charges, people react differently depending on circumstances like whether they are accompanied by defenseless children, who can be eviscerated in an instant.  Any parent who would trust their child's welfare to the goodwill of an agitated animal is not a fit parent.   Interjecting yourself into the scenario, and claiming you would slam the door, or kick the dog is nothing more than Monday-morning quarterbacking, since you did not witness the circumstances.  There are a lot of hysterical commenters here who would rather see you face down a grizzly bear empty-handed, then blame you for smelling like food, or not following their bear-wise precautions.  I'm talking about the backwards-thinking people who commend killing the unborn, then over-compensate through fanatical defense of animals: a cowardly position which costs them nothing, and still lets them feel like Gandhi.
[A]: Yes


[Q]: I just listed the taxes I know about.  Feel free to educate me on "ALL the marijuana related taxes"  besides the current 25% about to be reduced to 17%.  

We know the Feds don't have an MJ tax; we know Lane County doesn't have anMJ tax; we know Eugene doesn't have an MJ tax and we know Springfield doesn't have an MJ tax.

I remember the R-G article about the MJ tax income received since January which I believe reflected recreational sales prior to that date as well, but I just looked at rates of taxes.  I'm sure you feel free to list such numbers as you think are important.
[A]: No


[Q]: Let's create an industry that provides lots of jobs, like thousands of jobs, and then let's make sure it can export lots of stuff, like billions of dollars of value. That surely would be great! 

Oh yeah, that would be the commercial fishing industry in Alaska, which does supply many low paying wage jobs to many non-residents, who take most of their earnings out of state. 

Commercial fishing harvests and processes billions of pounds of seafood from Alaska, with an export value of $5 to $6 billion. Yet they produce no net taxes to Alaska, and are subsidized by the state. It is so bad now ADFG is going into the commercial fish business through cost recovery fisheries. 

Where are the journalists on this story? One of the largest industries in the state pays no net taxes to the state, ADFG is doing cost recovery fisheries just to keep the doors open, the seafood industry cries it makes no money on $6 billion in exports, and no one in the media says the emperor has no clothes?
