Yeah... Essentially, it went something like this:
Oregon Policritters: LET'S RAISE TAXES ON THOSE EEEEEEEEVIL RICH FOLKS!!!!!
Common sense folks: If you do that, they're just gonna leave the state.........
OP's: NO, THEY'D NEVER DO THAT, OREGON IS TOO GOOD TO THEM!!!!!
CSF's: *smack* hey stupid. We're telling you, you're gonna drive the "rich folk's" away from the state, and the jobs they create are probably gonna go with them!
OP's: Hah, you so silly you little CSF's.... They'd never leave Orygun.........
OP's: Hey, where'd all the rich folks we were gonna tax go?
