Ben Jacklet, the managing editor of Oregon Business, unloads both barrels on Measures 66 and 67. What's most surprising is that the editor unloads on ... Oregon businesses.
Mr. Jacklet's take on the businesses thinking of leaving for more business friendly states? "Don't let the door hit you on the butt on the way out."
That's a pretty surprising sentiment from a business magazine. But it's not all that surprising from Oregon Business magazine.
Over the years, Oregon Business has been the model of milquetoast reporting. Everything is awesome in Oregon and business is booming! Green! Sustainable! Wine! Streetcars! Windmills! It's all awesome! Taxes are low! Children are smart! Government is savvy!
I have long since given up on Oregon Business to report on Oregon's business environment. Maybe that's why the only place I see the magazine is in the doctor's office nestled between Highlights for Children and the AARP magazine.
