We need to get rid of the Kicker all together and use it to fund state programs.

Why should my kicker pay off yet another government debt! No one pays off my debts but me.

Besides the fact, don't they get money from our lottery and from taxes on Marjuana sales which I have read is in the millions of $$. Our State Government is demanding to much money. Where is it going?

It was voted in to keep the government from grabbing every dollar they can. Do the job with what you get.

Yeah, right! Arn't we all are so forgiving for giving our hard earned money away to the community chest to squander and pad the pockets of politicos that think we're not looking. I see you!!!!

I agree with the other posters. That's my money. Why should it be appropriated to pay for state programs without my consent.

Another reason to vote Republican. Dem's always want to raise our taxes. It's our money to be given back to us.

Damn "PROGRESSIVE"? Democrats never have enough $s, but always promise more than can be funded without debt.

Oregon Democrats want nothing but more money. Need to fix their screw ups without demanding more money. They don't spend our money wisely in the first place. La Pine Overpass GREAT Example $15 Million

We voted for the rebate. Frigging California people that have moved to Oregon need to go back.

It's not the state's money!! It's our money. Who do these people think they are for Christ's sake.

What are they doing with the marijuana money? Do they have to take ours? NO - and I’ll vote against anyone who approves this!

That my money. Kate Brown has taken enough of our money in Central Oregon for her pet projects in Portland and the I-5 corrador. She doesn't care about us over here east of the cascades.

Never should have been allowed in the first place! Bend needs to develop a site with bathrooms, showers and rules,like NO drugs and NO trash. At least Redmond is trying to help these people. Take a. Lesson from them. Get off the dime and solve the problem

I say move the campers off forest land and onto main street if you want public funding for homelessness in Bend to become an immediate priority!!!

They have had excessive amount of time to move off land they are not even allowed to live on!

They have had ample time to move. Vegetation reduction helps slow and or stop wildfires that will eventually hit that area and destroy millions of dollars worth of homes and people's lives.

Living in SE Bend I really enjoyed going to China Hat with my Jeep to off road and walk with my dogs. The thought of being shot has kept me from doing that for a while now. Good riddance to the homeless and make it where they can't come back.

it is public land, NOT someones home! The public cannot use it without fear of saftey. We DONT need another human caused fire that happens EVERY year out there, we have enough to worry about with mother nature fires. Time to move on!

Being homeless is usually the result of bad choices. My taxes help pay for government land. Living there rent free and creating tons of garbage, being a true threat to causing wildfires, behaving in a lawless manner angers too many of us who manage to pay for real housing. Move them out now.

We all have problems in life why do they think it is ok to do what they are doing, when the rest of us pay our taxes, go to work, get counseling if we have problems. The amount they spend on drugs, they could pay rent. It’s a choice and their choice is to do drugs and not work. DEATH and TAXES!!!

This homeless problem is a choice. These people are drug addicts that need to get clean and go back to work. They should be put into rehab while being counseled for their personal problems. Once clean they should be put to work doing tasks that prisoners do. If they refuse, then jail them.

The Homeless Campers are the wrong people on the wrong landscape due to their lack of cognitive awareness of fire. I and many others are willing to share grace for their position in life when they are willing to improve their situation through counseling, accepting shelter to transition life.

They are humans and have no other options.We try not to let that happen to unwanted pets, yet have no problem in letting it happen to, what many consider, unwanted people!
