Anti-Tax Initiatives

Sometimes we find good news in The Oregonian.

Oregon's leading anti-tax activists are quietly rolling out a new strategy to limit government by partnering with frustrated small-town residents across the state.

"We're going full bore at the local level all over the state," said Jeff Kropf, a former state legislator and director of Americans for Prosperity Oregon, the state chapter of a Washington D.C.-based group promoting limited government. "If we can't stop big government in Salem, we're going to do it at the grass-roots level."

Strangle the beast.
