Oregon is now number one...

[Presto]

for unemployment. 12.1%. Guess how many govt. workers lost their jobs? Yep, not even one. They were the only segment to grow in the last count.

And who wouldn't want to live in a state where not only can you stiff the banker on your mortgage, but now you can just about stiff anyone foolish enuf to give you credit, including utilities.

Great place to do business this Oregon.

I'm an investor in Oregon property, so I'm familiar.

This unemployment % is on top of the fact that they make stupid laws
like:

You can't pump your own gas anywhere in the state, because they
thought that they could create more jobs by outlawing it.

WTF???

did you even read your second link presto?

Kroger praised the governor and legislative leaders for approving the law that allows the Oregon Department of Justice to sue debt collectors who call in the middle of the night, curse and threaten consumers.

you rushed again without reading your article before you posted it. this law has nothing to do with stiffing someone, it has to do with debt collectors going over the line and people suing them if they call when they are not supposed to call.

may be the worst reach ive seen in awhile on this forum.
