I prefer to buy a real tree because there's nothing like having one. It just makes Christmas better!

I'd rather support Oregon families AND clean air than a Chinese factory.

Ben Hargis

There's enough fake in this world. I'll take real.

Angel Jin

Old fashioned.

I really prefer a real tree, but I gave up on them a few years ago. I bought a really beautiful, real-looking fake tree at Home Depot several years ago, that already has lights and red berries and pine cones. and a little flocking. It still looks great. Am very happy with it!

Don't actually celebrate Christmas. I celebrate Hanukkah, but I do like the real trees when I see them around.

I prefer an artificial one because I can use it the next year.

Allergic to real trees!

Michael Miller

We've had an artificial tree for years and it's paid for itself many times over. The last real tree we bought soon began to smell like rotting vegetation.

Dianne Price

It's good for many years! If it gets dusty--put it in the shower!!

Gabe West

We had a real tree once that got dry and alot of needles fell out

No to more taxes, people are taxed enough!

JB Demaris

ODOT, and other state agencies need to live within a reasonable budget and the state needs to stop raising taxes!

John Conway

ODOT Leadership is totally incompetent! They spend a billion dollars they don’t have and come to the taxpayers to bail them out. As far as increasing gas tax and registration fees we already pay.40 cents per gallon and our gas prices are $2 per gallon more than the rest of the country. No more mone!

Garry Aklin

We are taxed enough ! Oregon needs to balance the budget!

Jim Hipp

We are taxed to death and I'm sick of it. Let Tina cover it out of her pocket!

Pam Ferguson

We are paying enough. The odor people have NOTbeen doing their jobs the last few years. You never see them out working like you used to and there are a lot of "mistakes" it started going down hill when they went to "teams" no boss system

We need a 'No Camp Zone ' radius around urban and sub urban areas and then have a few managed campsites within the new limit. Only 2 options. The risk to property owners and the option to live on the fringe is not right. Not a problem before 2020 and it's over time to get back to before.

Anotrher example of throwing good money after bad. The more freebies, the more homeless.
