Portland to Impose Climate Justice Tax (racism, party, Walmart, elections)

[uggabugga]

call it the ocrazio cortax.

At its core, the concept transfers wealth from big corporations such as Walmart to low-income Portlanders of color.

Never has City Hall had so much money to spend with so few strings attached.

If you don't like it, don't move to Portland.

So what happens if Walmart, Target, Home Depot, etc, close up and leave?

They’re gonna be real mad when a loaf of bread costs $10 at the one Wal-Mart that didn’t shut down....

I just don’t get liberals. If you rape and punish a company that provides goods and services, what exactly do you think will happen to the pricing and availability of what they offer?!

People will be in the streets crying racism and talking about food desert “phenomenon”

Elections have consequences.

They'll be ecstatic here if Wal-Mart just leaves and it reverts to smaller mom and pops that would be exempt. Which means "keeping it local" and "buying American" more.
