I don't know how widespread corruption is in Government in the US, but Oregon seems to have its fair share. This came into my mailbox today. Public information may not be public information.

Sounds like they took a page from the British Columbia govt. They routinely do this and dont care, they even recently got caught deleteing emails so they cant be found during a freedom of info rqst search. And of course thw politicians denied it all but many were caught red handed so mo way the Premier didnt know.

I am sure this stuff happens all over.

The Board of the Sand Diego Unified School District are so corrupt, they could make Robert Mugabe blush.

District Delays Marne Foster Investigation – Again

I've been following the story (one incredible revelation after another) for 6 months. The people at the top are stone cold teflon, even after a State Grand Jury came down and held an investigation.

lansbury! What do you have to say about this? I do hope you are not implicated.

If you are a democrat in Oregon you can get away with a lot. Be an independent or anything else and the rules apply. I was registered as a democrat but changed to no affiliation because of the way they looked after their personal best interests. A problem where a State is weighted too much towards one party. The Portland metro area is overwhelmingly democrat with over half the voters living there.

probably just Multnomah county. I think Washington county is a bit less so, hence lower taxes, no green bike boxes and gun ownership is allowed.

I forgot and very few of those ridiculous tiny houses that seem so popular in Portland
