@e2org Pacific-Corp & PGE both have a guaranteed rate of return on their investments around 10% given to them by the government. If the cost of business increases for either of these two power companies they simply pass it directly to the rate payers. AKA your electric bill.

@combtwombat Clearly, you are lost. If you want Healthcare for all it will cost more. Period. If we were to start in Oregon we wouldn't have the revenue 4 it. Why hasn't California implemented their Healthcare 4 all system? They passed the legislation, so what is the problem? A: Revenue

@SenatorOlsen @combtwombat Life expectancy in the US is going down for the first time since the industrial revolution, how are you going to stop that? Or are the deaths of our friends and family members just acceptable collateral damage in the world of big business?

@combtwombat @cruciverberella Is your knowledge & understanding of Economics only come from the one side perspective of a factory worker who is limited in creative skills & wanting in the capacity for critical thinking & completly dependent on others to create a job for them to do in trade for their time?

@prosies_ @cruciverberella Maybe in the parallel Universe you live in but where I come from when we work/labor for something we keep what we earned/Fruits minus what the government takes. Fruits are AKA profits or wages usually we negotiate an accord B4 the work to = profits/wages 4 our time.

Sir Winston Churchill summed it up & said it best. Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. Envy is their primary motive Really? whats a "Fair Share?" Who sets the fairness mark?

@erosegolden That's right, you guessed it. All persons at the Corps company earn an income and have to pay income taxes. whether it be the workers, cleaners, Janitors, desk jockeys or the top CEO's they all have to pay income taxes.

@erosegolden No, you are not. With their Fees, licensing and then property Taxes/& County Taxes they pay much more than you think. But let's just say a corporation doesn't pay anything at all in taxes....what then? Well, Oregon has one of the highest income taxes. and guess what.

@erosegolden Actually, that sounds a lot more like Government Institutions than it does corporations. If you were to actually read the article you would have found the Socialized National Oil Riggs are the problematic ones in just about every aspect. Financially/Environmentally

@SenatorOlsen Actually, the ones who want to “get something from nothing” are corporations and the elite. They externalize the destruction of our environment, exploit workers, and use resources for profit.

@combtwombat Simple Concept?? Really?? You would have to pay a significantly higher amount of taxes to get healthcare as a part of the tax return. It's a huge expense & all your tax money is spent on other programs. Conclusion = Pretty dilutional concept.

@SenatorOlsen Most people understand that getting things like, healthcare say, back from the taxes we pay is not “getting something from nothing”. The state senator does not. Combined resources is a pretty simple concept there, Al.
