The Portland Trail Blazers top business officials appeared at City Hall on Thursday to continue their demand that the city enact socialism for the rich and pay millions in public funds to renovate the Moda Center.⁠
⁠
The team also utilized some stereotypes about Portland that have gathered steam over the past few years, saying the city must address its reputation on the national stage (and of course, lower income taxes) if it wants a deal with the team.⁠
⁠
