This Halloween, we’re digging into one of the scariest policy proposals haunting Oregon: Universal Basic Income (UBI). Guest host Andy Hooser and AFP’s Western Regional State Director Heather Andrews discuss the terrifying reality behind Oregon’s UBI measure, which would impose a 3% gross receipts tax on businesses. With impacts that could drive up the cost of essentials, cut local jobs, and make life even harder for working families, this proposal is no treat—it’s a trick with lasting consequences.
This episode explores how the UBI plan threatens the future of Oregon’s economy and why residents should be frightened of its chilling effects on businesses and consumers alike. Don't miss this special Halloween episode, where we expose the true horrors hidden in Oregon's UBI proposal and the economic hauntings it could unleash.
