The people of Oregon have already given tacit approval to both of these measures when they elected a democratic majority in Salem.

I don't understand the arithmetic. First, only C Corporations will pay the tax on gross revenues. Local coffee shop prolly not one of those. But even if it were, the tax is .1% on gross revs. If our friendly coffee shop has GRs of 500,000, then that tax is 500 bucks only. Where did the 7500 come from?
