I love a natural tree best, but I have to admit that a few years ago, I bought a beautiful fake tree, with lights, berries, and pine cones already on it and I love it.

Nothing like a natural smelling tree for the holidays.

No brainier, natural trees rock. A renewable product and great fragrance in house, No plastic.

Real trees are too darn expensive, $60 a year or $60 for 10 years or more!

Because it is better for the environment, for thousands of trees are being cut down and you don’t have to go through the big mess

It lasts for a lot of years, it doesn't makes sense to cut a tree to send it to the trash after 2 weeks

There really is no need to kill a living tree in order to set it up in one's home just so people can look at it and then throw it away once the holiday season is over. It's wasteful and selfish.

Trump is a clear danger to Democracy. I don't think MAGA people actually listen to his "speeches"/rambling offensive tirades of many half-truths.. but also easily disproven outright lies. How anyone can support him at this point, is bizarre.

I voted for Trump because of his policies. Harris has none, just the same terrible Biden policies.

This type of tax will always be passed on to we consumers. Oregonians already pay an income tax. It's another heavy burden on Oregon consumers that will be passed on to us - the increased costs is nothing but a hidden tax.

This is a sneaky way to get sales tax in place and will add as much as 15% to the consumer's cost for retail purchases.

It's a hand out to the rich who can afford to live here only 200 days out of the year.
