We need to get rid of the Kicker all together and use it to fund state programs.

Why should my kicker pay off yet another government debt! No one pays off my debts but me.

Besides the fact, don't they get money from our lottery and from taxes on Marjuana sales which I have read is in the millions of $$. Our State Government is demanding to much money. Where is it going?

It was voted in to keep the government from grabbing every dollar they can. Do the job with what you get.

Yeah, right! Arn't we all are so forgiving for giving our hard earned money away to the community chest to squander and pad the pockets of politicos that think we're not looking. I see you!!!!

I agree with the other posters. That's my money. Why should it be appropriated to pay for state programs without my consent.

Another reason to vote Republican. Dem's always want to raise our taxes. It's our money to be given back to us.

Damn "PROGRESSIVE"? Democrats never have enough $s, but always promise more than can be funded without debt.

Oregon Democrats want nothing but more money. Need to fix their screw ups without demanding more money. They don't spend our money wisely in the first place. La Pine Overpass GREAT Example $15 Million

We voted for the rebate. Frigging California people that have moved to Oregon need to go back.

It's not the state's money!! It's our money. Who do these people think they are for Christ's sake.

What are they doing with the marijuana money? Do they have to take ours? NO - and I’ll vote against anyone who approves this!

That my money. Kate Brown has taken enough of our money in Central Oregon for her pet projects in Portland and the I-5 corrador. She doesn't care about us over here east of the cascades.

Beginning to look like the city wants to be a mini Portland. Not what Central Oregon is all about.

Piping the canals to conserve water is the logical next step. Where does Commissioner Adair think the wildlife got a drink before the canals were made over 100 years ago? I will admit reducing Junipers and reinvigorating our wild grasslands makes sense.

The canals were not put in as "water features" for people's backyards. Build your own water feature and pay for the water. This water is meant for agriculture.

Commission Adair, where do you think wildlife get water when irrigation water is off Oct-March? Please share your plan and funding strategy for removing 5 million juniper trees. What will happen to the wildlife that live in those trees. Your argument is weak.

Why do Bend residence have to accommodate Jefferson county. I'm sure someone up there can figure a way go pump the water they need out of Lake Billy Chinook

Wildlife has relied on these open canals for decades. There is no other option for critter water.
