    out here in orygun

    This bill comes up from time to time, but they never pass. Its one of the things which make Oregon Oregon. Not only is it marginally safer (this dates from the days of above ground tanks) but it is much better for elderly and disabled drivers, not to mention keeping the rest of us out of the NW monsoon. And it means that low skill employment is readily available for those who need it. The gas companies try to argue that it would be cheaper if we pumped our own, but our prices are lower than that of our neighbors', so I think we can figure out who it would be cheaper for.
