Portland City Council Vows Poverty?

April 6 in Portland ,Oregon saw the vote of the city council to end all investments in corporations.Their grief toward for- profit prisons, military-industrial-complex organizations, racial injustice companies etc et al was so far reaching that the list that was OK to invest in was reduced to a Shake Shack franchisee who donated all profits to keep street people in enough money to buy weed and water.Fact is that even Portlanders need city services.Question. Will Portland stop taxing residents who may work for corporations who are on the socially unacceptable list? Old hippies never die their legislation just goes on.
