No One Left To Tax

I'm going to steal this video from Oregon Guy because you've got to see it.

Anybody who says "no" to LNG is saying "no" to family-wage jobs, and "no" to thier children. Anyone who says "no" to pipelines is saying "no" to family-wage jobs and those people's children. Anyone who says "no" to getting back in the forest and taking advantage of the abundant, renewable, sustainable, bio-friendly resource in the forest is saying "no" to family-wage children.

Anyone that says "no" about pulling water out of the Columbia, and irrigating thousands of arable acres -- anyone that says "no" to that is saying "no" to working families in this state and "no" to their children.

And yes, it's OK for Mr. Byerley to hand you out a fraction of your weekly wage because we just think that's OK.

That's what's going on in this state.

It's black or white, it's yes or no, it's up or down, and anybody that says anything but "yes" to those things and more is saying "no" to family-wage jobs in this state, and that's it.

I'm tired of talking. I've been processed to death for eight years in this building, and were going nowhere but down.

And we have no one left to tax.

Nobody's left to tax.

Schaufler's a Democrat. I don't care. I'm not a Democrat, and I'm not a Republican. I don't belong to any party any more, but I vote. And if I lived in Schaufler's district, I'd vote for him.

Take note, Republicans: the party's over.
