[Editor: Starting this one with a caveat. I don’t write long pieces here very often anymore. And usually, it tends to be when something is stuck in my craw. And I feel the need to rant. But this one is more metered. I figured if Governor Tina Kotek’s Oregon Prosperity Council was going to take the time and energy to compose a 452 page report on what Oregon needs, I would give it the space it needed. And I’d read all 452 pages. So you didn’t have to. This is my take. It’s not perfect. But hopefully, it provides some insights into the document, some highlights, and some questions. I’m literally just posting this to serve as an artifact for future reference. Rather than some glowing insight.]
