If these people are such a drag, such a bunch of troublemakers and take in more taxes than they pay why shouldn't Oregon be showing them the door?

Why should the rest of Oregon change to satisfy voters of a non-binding resolution?

They can get a Uhaul and go.

Why bother putting real costs on the state to appease people with freedom of agency already?

If the arrangement is mutually beneficial to Oregon, the "nobodies" and Idaho is on board then why not? Just to spite the nobodies?
