Money,money, money, aint it funny, what the Dems will do

Submitted By: dixiegainer@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
The kicker refund is 1,737 per Oregon taxpayer next year. The state has $6 billion dollars in cash reserves they can spend on anything they want, BUT the Oregon Dems want your kicker anyway. What do you think of that!!!
The terrible Dem ten just can’t get enough money. Economists are still projecting short term growth in tax monies coming into the state. In fact, they are projecting that monies coming into the state for the current two-year biennium will be an incredible $4.97 billion ahead of what they thought they would get when they wrote the current budgets back in 2021. But the Oregon Dems want your kicker anyway.
Republican state senator Lynn Findley defended the kicker and reminded the committee that the bar was super high to suspend it (2/3 vote of both the House and Senate), and that trying to “monkey” with the kicker was not the right path. But they want your kicker anyway.

Here is the article by the tax payers association of Oregon – oregoncatalyst.com/63869-revenue-update-hints-stealing-kicker-refund.html

The following article was written in 2019 before the Dems tried to pass a bill taking 1/2 your kicker money. To pass a bill – a certain number of legislators must be present to vote on such a bill, and when the Republicans became ABSENT for the vote, the bill could not be passed. Therefore in 2019 the Republicans saved the kicker tax refund for YOU dear fellow Oregonian. Today the same situation might occur again. Tina Kotek, soon to be governor, wants your kicker tax again. BUT because so many voted against the very people who saved your kicker last time, (measure 113)* a bill about THOSE who became ABSENT. “legislators who are ABSENT more than so many days cannot run for office again “, was put on the ballot as measure 113. That measure was directed at the Republicans who saved your kicker. (’cause the terrible ten Dems really want your kicker) What do you think of that – what a way to treat the people who saved your dough. In this regard measure 113 was really a measure for dummies and most of you stepped up to the plate! Do you think they will walk out for you again?

My ultimate goal is to get to PDX around noon on Monday. If going on Sunday, my destination will be the Goose Hollow neighborhood. I expect to be taking one suitcase. I’ll contribute to gas expense.

Help Kill Rats PLEASE

Submitted By: Sonya.agnello@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I live in an RV and rat evidence has been found in the storage underneath. I sealed some holes, put out moth balls and they are frequenting less. Put out a rat zapper and the bait is gone but no fried rats.

Tonight one was inside my cabinet under my sink. All the holes were sealed prior to keep out mice and were successful so I can’t for the life of me figure out how a rat got in. There’s no evidence of him being there but the noises I heard (loud noises and it definitely was in there) and I put a ton of moth balls under there now to help keep them out…but now my whole house smells strongly and I can’t even breathe 🙁

I’ve called exterminators but they either don’t do campers or I’m too far away.

I bought rat traps but they aren’t here yet. If anyone has experience with rat killing, trapping, whatever, please help me. I have a clean home, I got rid of all of my contaminated items in storage, I am literally doing everything the internet suggestions but bait traps because I don’t want them to die in the underbelly of my RV.

Please please please suggest something to help me. It’s causing enormous stress and I work like 60 hours a week so finding time to figure this out on my own is not working :(((

CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU…from Deb Simmons

Submitted By: gerald@wineinger.com – Click to email about this post
Manzanita is fortunate that 3 citizens campaigned long and hard for 2 city council seats. Congratulations to Brad Mayerle and Linda Koslowski for their victories, and also to Mark Kuestner for earning significant citizen support. It was a very close race run with dignity and respect.
None of us hit the campaign trail alone. We were all backed by teams of friends, believers and spouses who did much of the hard work and gave us significant guidance along the way. And, to our supporters, those who were out front as well as behind the scenes, there is no way to thank each of you individually for your contributions. However, kudos goes out to the Concerned Citizens of Manzanita and to the Women’s Forum who knocked on a lot of doors, and also to those who hosted gatherings and encouraged citizens to make every vote count.
Speaking personally, my thanks will be in working towards implementing some of those changes that many of you hope to see happen. Respecting all people – whether or not you share a view – will be the norm. Opening doors to discussions so all sides can be heard – will be the norm. Councilors and city officials listening to what you have to say – will be the norm. Finally, putting major spending and other significant packages to a vote by citizens – will be one of my personal goals as mayor.
Thanks, also, to the hundreds of citizens who voted. I am overwhelmed by your support, engaged by the lively banter of opposiing views and encouraged about the vision of our city coming together.
Respectfully,
Deb Simmons Mayor-elect of Manzanita
