Actually, as a greedy Oregon taxpayer ( I know that's redundant to the liberals) I think we need to take and  spend the Federal Dollars LTD is getting.  

Oregon income tax payers send more Federal Tax Dollars to Washington than we receive in Federal Program money.  Even when you throw in SNAP and money for ODOT and money for Police and all that other stuff.  

Since we are paying more than we are getting, let's get more Federal dollars from the taxpayers in the other States.   As long as LTD can drive their mostly empty busses roundy  roundy, they're happy, so why not?
