It is a blitz folks, they are coming at us from every angle, timber (feds), law enforcement (county), city fee (city) tuition hikes (state), PERS, (state). What is a person going to have left to live on, unless you are one of the elite "progressive" who by the way now have total control of the state, thanks to indoctrination, implants, and people who did not pay attention to what was happening. Just what they wanted, divide and conquer. See you in the food line!

Do the math and figure out what each jail bed will cost us based on this proposal. You tell me if some inmate is worth it. Someone is making a killing on this and it isn't us taxpayers.

Well isn't this just great. We have higher from Oblunder's BS and Oblunder Care, higher EWEB bills and now this. Blood Suckers you are. Now the Lane County juvenile detention facility if passed gets 9%. If it's juveniles facility needs money make the parents pay for it. It's their little Sh**heads getting into trouble. It's about time parents start taking responsibility for their damn kids. THE LEVY WON'T PASS!!!
