Jobs? Portland has a chronic unemployment and underemployment problem, but it seems to be getting a lot worse. Seems to be plenty of people these days with time on their hands.

The number of gang shootings will be going down as soon as the Max and Streetcar tracks are laid to Milwaukee and L.O., easy fix.

Their jobs have been taken by Illegal Aliens leaving them with nothing.

The PoPo have become so disgusted over all the questioning of the manner in which they provide the blanket of the very freedom under which everyone rises and sleeps, they're just looking the other way?

Only five shootings in six nights? You're not trying, people....
Wait till the weather heats up.

It's a symptom of serious bicycle anemia in that particular part of town. We'll need a new bureau to distribute emergency bicycles.

Sam's curfew for offenders is clearing working wonders.

Abe, I'd be more worried about the jobs taken by the legal (H1B) aliens. Those are living wages not seasonal farmwork and kitchen work and low end work done by illegals. And if they were done by legals the price of your food would go way up.
