Oregon's "Excess Revenue": Refund or Reinvest?

from Cascade CounterPoint · host Cascade Policy Institute

In Oregon, when the actual tax revenue for a biennium exceeds the forecasted revenue by 2% or more, taxpayers get a rebate, which Oregonians call a “Kicker.” Debate about the Kicker has grown in recent years–with advocates on both sides of the issues taking out markedly different positions.  In this forum hosted by the City Club of Eugene, Dr. Eric Fruits of Cascade Policy Institute and Daniel Hauser of the Oregon Center for Public Policy debate the merits and effectiveness of the Kicker.  Cascade Policy Institute would like to thank the City Club of Eugene for allowing it to republish this recording.

Classical music is also noted for its use of sophisticated vocal/instrumental forms, such as opera.
