I think this will continue to happen if the city continues with the status quo. This isn't the early 2000s, Portland is shell of itself and it is time to be business friendly, and clean up the crime. This week I had a guy literally chasing me in the crosswalk yelling at me for $50 when I politely declined he then said $25. Then when I told him no he told me that I should make him something to eat. Who want to deal with that and honestly that is nothing compared to what people see during work hours.
There goes tax rev, I bet rent and land is still expensive though. Less money for infrastructure, schools, services and public safety. Opportunity decreases while crime increases. More people leave. And thats a death spiral.
Voters think that homelessness is the biggest issue, but they're behind the curve. HB4002 will have a big impact on the issue, so there will be less to do going forward. The next big issue to focus on is bringing businesses back to the CBD and revitalizing the city's economy.
@@Krobra91 there's plenty of housing... it's just that it's owned by the wealthy and Wall St. The solution is for the government to limit corporate stockpiling / hoarding of housing inventory, which would remove demand and allow prices to adjust lower. Otherwise, a good old fashioned housing market "crash" (really, just a return to normal) would result in a lot of corporate owned housing being sold off. Because all politicians now serve the interests of the wealthy elite, they only ever talk about needing to create more inventory (i.e. use taxpayer money to pay developers to build more homes).
Defending the police has consequences as does voting for inept progressive "leaders"Hopefully U Haul will be getting A LOT more buisness as people and buisnesses fly the coup.
But even after Wells Fargo leaves they promise to continue doing what they do best: steal from their own customers
🤣
Always bank with a local credit union, not Wall Street
it all goes to the federal reserve so not much difference
Losing Wells Fargo is no great loss, they're legal crooks.
Wells Fargo just hit an all time high for its stock,,,They are doing this for shareholder.
they aer doing this because Portland is dirty, dangerous, and over-priced l
Because the CEO needs another $8 million dollars next year! Nothing justifies eliminating jobs, but greed is fully legal for some stupid reason.

I doubt you actually live in Portland.
Crooks and thieves !
Thank you, Ted Wheeler, Portland City Council and Multnomah County Commissioners. Way to go!

They were defrauding their own depositors. Good riddance to rubbish financial institutions

Moving out of Portland? Gee I wonder why?

PBA at its best.

Wells Fargo leaving? Sounds like crime is set to go down.
how's that Democratic Utopia working 🤣
Ok bye
Nothing will be missed
Once interest rates go down you're going to see a mass exodus leaving Portland for greener pastures. This is just the beginning.
You can thank your Democrat party for this!!!
Shut up
🤣
Portland sucks.
Everyone is leaving.
