PROBLEM: I agree with you Rick Halford. You remember your history very well. Too bad Bill Walker doesn't howvre he quotes Wally Hikle a lot and that isn't good. This legislature, well we get what we vote for and it's too damn bad.

SOLUTION: No

PROBLEM: As the May 17th train leaves the station - those surprised by the city's timing might have benefited from a full exposure of the election. Notice folks:  Glenwood *doesn't need* roundabouts. Jim Wildish, LTD chair, owns huge re-zonable riverfront acreage on Franklin (.5mi south from bridge). Glenwood won't get any less valuable as Eugene bursts at the seams, and Springfield's the only place left with affordable housing, utilities, and business space - so whats the rush?  A CLT parking lot is a costly anachronism. CLT *won't* be developed in Springfield because the investors aren't there. The mayor's 'hail Mary' for a dead wood products industry, her signature project, is now on an almost unstoppable trajectory to build Patel's hotel.  A convention center won't want poor folk's homes or inclusionary zoning that might mar river vistas. This status quo has radical, long term consequences. Its why I ran for mayor. Passivity is expensive, and it allows others to decide (and own) our future.

SOLUTION: No

PROBLEM: How stupid and I mean stupid are political groups that think increasing taxes on corporations won't end up costing customers more for the corporations products?
Corporations are charged with making pensions funds (like PERS) and other investors dividends and rising stock prices, so they just figure out a way to pass the tax on to the customer.

SOLUTION:
Yes
