Got it, you just try to troll people and provide nothing at all to support your beliefs. You just generally want people to be worse off and for the city to have no economy. It is a good thing you have no power.👍

That is all you do. You've proven nothing this entire time and just make shit up to pretend. Literally not one thing have you supported.

Early you noted that PDX has great schools but never provided support. Just for your own information we have one Highschool that is in the top 600 and just barely. Making shit up is cool, but google can be your friend.

Classes is a term that will naturally exist. We are not like brazil. Do you think everyone is just going to be wealthy and no one has to work? Please explain the logistics of how that works. Doesn't even work in UBI, so I would love for you to explain it in detail.

Poor people live here.. that is not a indication of what you are trying to assert. Attracting a bunch of minimum wage people to move here is not the win you think it is. Without business or a economy how will you support giving them money?

I mean, where ever you want really. Pew research center is a good one. It changes based on what you individually are looking for but I look at countries like Norway and see when we have a healthy economy and people.

Okay, that just means you don't understand what embezzling is. That fines, but it is corruption. Perhaps google more?

Sure, the entire time you've argued we do not need healthy middle class nor investment/or business but yeah, that is not what you are saying.

You asked a loaded question without defining what you were trying to ascertain so I qualified it. Stats easily show the time period in which we had a healthy middle class and investment. I just cannot say I experienced it as I was not alive.

What did Lori E. Deveny, Lester Smith, Miranda Renee, De von Horace do then? I'm sure there is more I don't remember but do we just not count it cause you said so?

Are you honestly so arrogant and dumb to think that if someone was not alive during a time period they cannot speak to it? Wow how do we have history lol. Clearly you are very old and wise. 👍🤣

🤣 it is amazing how fucking dense you are. Point out any place on earth that does well with no investment. Just one place that supports your idea that money is not needed to fund services. Maybe look at the nordic countries they still have high FDI. Being stupid is cool too though 👍

Again this goes to figuring out how to tax the company while improving education, safety, healthcare and making it a education/skilled labor market with a desire for people to live in like Boston. Furthermore, ideally you let the middle grow instead of taxing them to offset a shrinking taxbase

Had what a healthy middle class and business? I would not know as I was not around here during that time but I would imagine 60s through 90s. Before stock buy backs were legal and taxes were very high on business and actual rich people not the elite abusive 125k w-2 earners in Portland.

VFW scandal, the ethics investigation but in general while you hate to believe it, the blantant overspending compared to anywhere else in the USA is a measure of something not going correctly. Either incompetence or corruption, but in a few years they will be audited and something wiill be found.

Interesting, so every other major city on the planet earth does this but PDX is unable to. Why is that? OZ TCs etc exist for a reason.

Portland has terrible schools but that does not make them the worst in the state. They have zero that are ranked highly in the nation. What are you trying to get at?

That requires business to be here though. If you can just think for a moment, for the services you want, you want to have a healthy middle class and good economy to support the people that live here and provide for the services. Instead you push them out lol. Money trees are your only savior

The general lack of any oversight and accountability by people like you lead to fraud and corruption. It is everywhere in this city. The only place I've been with more obvious corrupt is maybe joburg. The books are blatant abuse of power.

A free market is not always the best solution, if you read about the invisible hand, there are situations that require measurements/limits on "free trade". I'm not sure why you think everything has to be absolute.
