I don't think the backers of the measure were lying, they were merely constrained by Oregon law. Requiring the proceeds of the tax to be spent in a particular way would have required an amendment to the Oregon Constitution. Why the law is written that way, I have no idea. Getting an amendment to the Constitution by ballot measure is a higher hurdle that its backers decided to avoid.

This cartoon is aimed at the "Tier 1%ers", such as Mike Bellotti, not the other 99%.

Here is a link to what PERS recipients are getting: http://gov.oregonlive.com/pers/browse/

I disagree with quite a bit of your article, particularly your attribution of motivation of the supporters of Measure 97. The point of the cartoon was mainly that the governor and legislature should try first to deal with the PERS issue directly, rather than expect it to be bailed out by Measure 97. I don't believe M97 was created to cover the PERS shortfall, but if it passes, about half of its expected revenue will go to pay for PERS. In any case, regarding the use of my cartoon in your publication, I do not grant permission.

Yes, but they are the ones getting a wage boost (as opposed to senior citizens on a fixed income), which would overshadow the potential inflation in the costs of goods and services -- the theoretical result of a minimum wage increase.

My source was an article in the Oregonian. http://www.oregonlive.com/education/index.ssf/201... Do you disagree that it's a bad sign for the state of public education when teachers in three of the largest school districts in the state are either striking, preparing to strike or facing the possibility of a strike, coupled with the poor on-time high school graduation rates? I haven't identified a root cause in the cartoon-- all I am saying is: this is not a thriving system right now. Have I missed the mark? -Jesse

The project was woefully mismanaged by Cover Oregon, the Oregon Health Authority, and everyone on up the chain of command. I don't know that Oracle set out to rip off the state of Oregon, but the complete lack of oversight led to that eventuality.

Thanks for the kind words. Don't give up on drawing cartoons: the concept is 90% of it. You just have to be able to draw well enough to convey the idea.

Does New York have the same problem? I was kind of channeling my inner Crazy Eddie, if those stores still exist in the Tri-state area...

My condolences to you Arizonans. I am afraid more risky wildfires are in all of our futures...
