The group, Our Oregon is considering pushing ballot measures that would raise taxes on corporations and the wealthy . Two years ago the state was embroiled in the same simple battle between Fair Share versus My Share when it comes to taxes. The business communities same old argument is this: If you tax us then we won't have enough money to hire you and there go the jobs. But the past couple of decades amply demonstrate that as taxes on the wealthy and on corporations are slashed, there go the jobs. In the case of Oregon, the Big Boxes provide a few low-wage positions…and they ship the profits out of state. It keeps the shareholders chill and it ices Oregon’s economy..ouroregon.org/
