20% of Lane County households are at or below the poverty line.

43% of Lane County households — including the 20% at or below the poverty line — are struggling to make ends meet.

Obviously it is time to pass a sales tax which will be passed on to these 43% by the Big Corporations.  Since 7 of the 10 largest employers in Lane County are taxpayer supported and the new tax revenue will go to support them and their retirement program, it is clearly beneficial.  And for the 'childrin', of course.
