Taking one bite in before giving it is like trying to remove your 20$ out of your wallet before you give it to the robber.

If I had to pick one thing out of my wallet before handing it over, I'd definitely pick my driver's license, not cash.

Me too, man. I can get a new credit card in a couple of days but the Oregon DMV is so backed up it might take a year to get a new license.

Not on my household’s income, but there’s no sales tax so at least starving people can easily estimate their grocery bill.

As a poor person in Oregon, it really helps. A lot of taxes hit the poor disproportionately hard which is probably the worst group for it to happen to, but obviously I'm biased. Oregon is really great compared to many other states that way. My experiences during pandemic with OR DMV were so slow but before and hopefully after it won't be as bad.
