Portland continues to shun businesses (re: Clr. Morillo questioning why we don't have enough $ for rent assistance after being told we are down $12 million in business license fees alone...do these folx not understand basic economics?!)

Meanwhile in Gresham: www.oregonlive.com/business/202...

Small, mom & pop businesses, you know, the ones we shunned big corporations for? We're letting them die. During the meeting they cited that the city lost $12 million in business licenses alone, that's not even getting into lost tax revenue, and sadly represents businesses leaving PDX.

Translation, I'm addicted to the internet, I am a troll and a bigot. I have no idea what the community really needs or what is really happening. I have specific interests in negating any truths, I have no idea what is appropriate to help people with mental illness or homelessness.

Wow so you weren't paying one single bit of attention on the 10/08/2025 City Council meeting when the small businesses testified. One wonders if it were your familty held hostage at gunpoint if you would have a different view.

PDX Policy Horizon @pdxpolicyhorizon.bsky.social · 9d

Hmmm so tell me if you know nothing about real estate which you stated to Dunphy in the latest mean girls post how are you in charge of housing for the homeless?

So really you're just an armchair activist who is brain dead from spending so much time on social media. Good to know.

Maybe you should ask the immigrants or keep being a misogynist and assume you know what's best for them.

PDX Policy Horizon @pdxpolicyhorizon.bsky.social · 9d

Well I guess if you thin, the six mean girls on council who bully other people are a good thing. I can see why you're upset.

PDX Policy Horizon @pdxpolicyhorizon.bsky.social · 9d

So great that you are dealing with things that are going to make our city better.

PDX Policy Horizon @pdxpolicyhorizon.bsky.social · 9d

Not really, but it's good you know everything about me. Once again very misygynositic.
