A tax to support the homeless is essential to helping fix or alleviate the problem where I live. These people need support.

Every working class citizen is 1 paycheck away from homelessness. Without funding any resources, we are tacitly encouraging the problem.

Sam Ackerman

No they are not, if you are then that is YOUR problem. Spend less and save more.

There's no reason to tax certain households based on income to re-distribute wealth. These people need a different kind of help, and can make their own money eventually.

Hello not, they are lazy, or people that chose to use drugs. Let them fix their own problems that they created for them self's. If do feel bad for the people with true mental issues,

OH please. Liberals want more and more handouts.

Only in the form of a sales tax, so that EVERYONE can share in the pain. I am sick & tired of taxes on no one but homeowners. It is unending!! I I wish OR would implement a sales tax.

I'm all for helping homeless people; I buy them food. But the help should be voluntary, not forced; their problems are their problems and different people have different values.

Brad Livsey

ABSOLUTELY NOT!! I canvased 30 indigents recently to come rake needles for an afternoon, a nice meal with fair money paid.... NOT ONE took me up on my offer citing one failed excuse after another.

As long as there are no new costs to homeowners. Increase other taxes that everyone shares...gas, alcohol, cigarettes, whatever. Just don't even think about trying to bleed more $$ from homeowners!

Latterdaysaint

Eliminate the gas tax!

DENNIS DOHERTY

We live in Sisters. We would not be able to get over the pass to get to Portland in the winter without ODOT. This is irresponsible and dangerous!

Essential employees like that should not be laid off! We need them to keep the people on the highway safe.
