...nevermind...
So Nike, bless their hearts, donated $9 million to Oregon public Schools. How very generous. Consider this though: the tax breaks that Nike so desperately fought for from the state effectively deprive the public schools from an estimated $40 million that they would otherwise be granted from 2007 to 2009. Nike: so gracious with their billions earned from sweatshop labor and overpriced sneakers. Morty Seinfeld once said that in order to turn a profit in the garment industry you needed "cheap fabric and dim lighting." Whatever, some of the shoes are cool and I still buy them. But for the record, Nike oughta be taxed like any other entity. It seems that the state of Oregon is so intent on keeping big businesses and the jobs they provide to Oregonians in Oregon that they've lost sight of what's really important.
READ A BOOK or THE NEWSPAPER or SOMETHING.
