STRONG Salem is for everyone who wants to help and participate in getting Salem, Oregon, to quit chasing Growth Ponzi Scheme plans and instead become a resilient, fiscally responsible place that lives by the wisdom that "Communities exist for the health and enjoyment of those who live in them, not for the convenience of those who drive through them, fly over them, or exploit their real estate for profit."

Maybe President "Big Coal" Pelton will introduce the speaker!
Too funny -- a philosopher speaking at Willamette U. law school to inquire about whether we have any obligation to the future. Maybe Willamette President M. Lee "Big Coal" Pelton -- who sits in a very comfortable chair on the board of PGE, Oregon's top polluter and greenhouse gas emitter -- will introduce her and stay to argue that, no, our only obligation is to maximize the return to our shareholders (since that is, after all, PGE's position).
