My take on this bill is that there is probably a low likelihood that the
bill will pass since, primarily, it is not economically feasible, i.e.,
it will likely cost more to administer the program than the income that
is generated. One could argue that other bills have passed that are not
economically viable as well, but there has been significant opposition
to this legislative concept before. As others in OBRA land have done,
please direct your positive energy toward your legislator. Also
recognize that the vast majority, upwards to 90%, of the bills
introduced to the legislature are from "meaningful" individuals or
special interest groups and are destined for the recycle bin.

The more I read about what the Oregon Legislature submits/considers as
'Serious Legislation', the more convinced I am that they are clueless
imbeciles that would be better off stuffed off the coast on some
uninhabited island where the only people they can legislate over is
themselves. Although I seriosuly doubt they can even do that.
