Is everyone now willing to accept this was all a ruse to make Biden seem impartial during the election and he was always going to bail his son out?

The decision spares Hunter a possible prison sentence and reverses Biden's promises not to use the powers of the presidency for the benefit of his family members.

There is pretty much nothing that the city can do to lower the prices of rent. The amount of housing that would need to be in surplus simply cannot be built within city limits. You would probably have to build like over 100,000 units. That's simply not feasible.

The reason that rent is so high Is because there are lots of people who do not work in Newberg who want to live in Newberg. And they have the income to spend on that rent. and landlords know this.

That's why they keep building housing using the so-called affordable housing stuff and then turning around and selling it for the exact same prices as everyone else.

It's basic economics. You can go on Alibaba and buy almost anything that's on Amazon for dollars but people using Amazon are willing to spend a hundred times or more to buy it from Amazon. So lots of people exploit that by purchasing items from China and drop shipping to customers who buy the product from their listings on Amazon
It's not about the demand and the supply as much as it's about what people are willing to pay.

The only thing that can be done to address the situation is to bring better paying jobs to the town so local people who work in Newberg can more adequately afford to live here.

Continuing to fixate on the tourism is not going to do it because those jobs don't pay enough for local residents they just benefit the owners of the wineries most of whom don't pay anything to Newberg because they're outside of city limits. Hotels and bars don't employ enough people or pay them all that much. It might bring in taxes but it doesnt bring the jobs.

A lot of the people pushing for more housing in cities like Newberg are not motivated to do so because they want to make the city a better place to live for residents but because they want to take advantage of the high price of housing for their own advantage as builders, realtors and landlords, and they don't care about whether it creates more congestion on roads that were not designed for this number of people making the city more unsafe. Or destroys the small town atmosphere that is the entire reason people want to live here.

If they get their way they will cram in as many tiny homes and whatever else they can and change it from being a small town into a dystopian nightmare just like Portland and it won't do anything to address the prices of housing just like it hasn't in any other City in proximity to Portland. Forest Grove. Sherwood and many other cities completely destroyed the kind of atmosphere they used to have and their rent prices are just as high. It's not going to go down because you build more housing. If the price goes down it's because there's an economic crisis and people coming from other areas have less money to spend.

We need your input to address rising rents in Newberg. 📣 🏘

The State of Oregon identified Newberg as a community with severe rent-burdened households, meaning more than 25% of renters pay more than 50% of their monthly income on rent.

Newberg Public Schools board is holding another illegal executive session tomorrow. Even though they are now facing a 2.5 million dollar lawsuit for illegally hiring Radich as interim superintendent in violation of state laws, and that the Oregon government ethics commission already told them they cannot discuss hiring superintendents and their contracts or interview candidates for hire in an executive session they are doing so anyway tomorrow. The Democrats just don't care about the laws. And they think everybody in Newberg is just going to let them run the district they pay taxes to like it is their own private company.

This is not Democracy. They clearly seem to think that they are kings and queens who can do whatever they want in violation of the law.

Universal Basic Income ie just giving people free money doesnt lead to better outcome. Study proves they just dont work as much and spend more time in leisure ( watching tv, games etc) They actually end up poorer because they stop working.

It was predictable. People are not poor in America because of lack of economic opportunities. They're poor because they make bad decisions with the money that they get and that doesn't change when they get free money.

The Newberg Dundee School Board continues to ignore the law thinking that they can do whatever they want to do. At tonight's board meeting they voted to give notice to Dr Phillips for termination for no cause. They then discussed renewing Radich's contract and hiring a consultant firm to get a new superintendent.

The problem? Well as anybody who has been following the Newberg School Saga should be aware of several years ago Oregon state government passed into law a bill that requires 12 months advanced notice in order to fire a superintendent for no cause. This rule is in ORS § 334.225 (2)

Once again the Pogressive Yamhill controlled board ignore the laws to further their political agendas.

Anyone with a little understanding of employment law knows two things from this. The first is that the golden parachute clause has to be paid out immediately by the district which is like $325,000. The second is because Radich was illegally hired by the school district she has no legal authority to fire him which is an obvious wrongful termination lawsuit.

These people have no idea what they are doing at the helm of this ship and are making the district financial issues worse for what is very obviously a politically motivated purge of employees over ideological differences which have nothing to do with the administration of the school district

Just a reminder that Progressive Yamhill controlled Facebook groups such as Yamhill County Community Discussion are censoring my recent article about the illegal activities of the school board. These groups exist primarily to astroturf voters. They make false accusations in an effort to try to discredit my newspaper because they dont want people to hear all sides of issues.
