A Tax-Free Oregon: My Plan to Eliminate Every Tax
By Alexander Ziwahatan, Independent Candidate for Governor of Oregon
Freedom from Taxes, Funded by Innovation
As a candidate for Governor of Oregon, I’m putting forward a bold, data-driven plan to eliminate every major tax in the state — income, property, and business — while fully funding education, healthcare, housing, and infrastructure through new sovereign revenue streams.
This isn’t a dream. It’s a blueprint rooted in math, technology, and common sense. By replacing Oregon’s outdated tax system with innovation-based revenue generation, we can build a state that is financially independent, socially fair, and globally competitive.
At the center of my plan is GeoCity Oregon — a state-owned geothermal well campus that will anchor a clean-energy economy producing up to $45 billion a year. Backed by six additional innovation sectors, the total new annual revenue exceeds $100 billion, allowing Oregon to abolish taxes permanently.
Why I’m Fighting to End Taxes
For generations, Oregon’s economy has run on the same broken formula: take more from citizens while delivering less.
We have some of the highest overall tax burdens in the West, yet we face a $373 million budget shortfall, decaying schools, rising homelessness, and aging infrastructure.
Taxation punishes productivity and discourages ownership. I believe Oregon can — and must — evolve into a post-tax economy where prosperity flows from creation, not extraction.
As Governor, I will lead that transformation.
The Foundation: GeoCity Oregon
GeoCity Oregon is the cornerstone of my $100 billion economic plan. It’s a statewide network of geothermal well campuses designed to harness the Earth’s natural heat and convert it into renewable baseload power, green hydrogen, and industrial heat for manufacturing.
Unlike solar or wind, geothermal runs 24/7 — clean, constant, and powerful.
Each GeoCity campus will include:
-
Deep geothermal wells for continuous power generation.
-
Hydrogen production facilities for zero-emission fuel.
-
Mineral recovery operations for lithium and rare elements.
-
Research and education centers that train Oregon’s next-generation workforce.
Projected annual net revenue: $40 – 45 billion.
These campuses will be publicly owned through the Oregon Sovereign Wealth and Innovation Fund (OSWIF), ensuring profits go back to citizens — not private corporations.
Seven Sovereign Revenue Streams
Together, the following seven sectors will generate between $97 and $119 billion annually, replacing all current tax revenue and creating long-term financial independence for Oregon.
1. GeoCity Oregon – $40 – 45 Billion/Year
The geothermal backbone of Oregon’s future — powering homes, industries, and exports with clean energy while employing thousands of Oregonians.
2. AI & Innovation Licensing – $30 – 35 Billion/Year
Under my administration, Oregon will launch state-backed innovation labs to hold equity and licensing rights in emerging AI, biotech, and quantum technologies.
Just a 1 percent public royalty on global AI applications could yield tens of billions in annual revenue.
3. Hope Meadows Recovery Communities – $3 – 5 Billion/Year
These self-sustaining villages will transform homelessness and addiction into productivity. Residents will grow food, generate clean power, and contribute to the local economy — creating dignity and surplus instead of endless expense.
4. Carbon Credit Exchange – $8 – 10 Billion/Year
A state-run carbon market rewarding forest conservation and clean industry. Oregon’s forests are worth billions in sequestration credits — it’s time Oregonians, not corporations, benefit.
5. Data-Center Environmental Impact Fees – $6 – 8 Billion/Year
Tech giants rely on Oregon’s resources but contribute little in return. Under my plan, data centers will pay environmental-impact fees indexed to energy and water use — fair compensation that funds rural infrastructure and environmental restoration.
6. Patent & Trade Royalties – $7 – 10 Billion/Year
All publicly funded research will include a small royalty back to the state. This aligns innovation with public benefit — every breakthrough becomes an Oregon dividend.
7. Longevity & Wellness Hub – $3 – 6 Billion/Year
Through public-private partnerships, Oregon will attract the global longevity and regenerative-medicine industries, creating new jobs and billions in annual medical-tourism revenue.
Total Sovereign Revenue: $97 – 119 Billion Per Year
| Sector | Annual Net Revenue |
|---|---|
| GeoCity Oregon | $40 – 45 B |
| AI & Innovation Licensing | $30 – 35 B |
| Hope Meadows Communities | $3 – 5 B |
| Carbon Credit Exchange | $8 – 10 B |
| Data-Center Impact Fees | $6 – 8 B |
| Patent & Trade Royalties | $7 – 10 B |
| Longevity & Wellness Hub | $3 – 6 B |
| Total | $97 – 119 B |
From Taxpayer to Shareholder
Under my governorship, every Oregonian becomes a shareholder in the state’s success through the Oregon Sovereign Wealth and Innovation Fund (OSWIF).
This fund will own and manage the state’s revenue-generating assets — from GeoCity wells to innovation royalties — and distribute profits through a Citizen Dividend worth an estimated $5,000 – $7,000 per adult each year once mature.
Oregon residents won’t pay taxes — they’ll earn dividends.

Why My Plan Works
-
Energy Independence: GeoCity Oregon provides permanent, renewable baseload power and export revenue.
-
Diverse Income Streams: Seven independent sectors ensure long-term fiscal stability.
-
Public Ownership: Profits flow directly to the people, not special interests.
-
Innovation Economy: Oregon becomes a global leader in AI, biotech, and clean energy.
-
Moral Fairness: Wealth is generated voluntarily, not extracted coercively.
The Economic Ripple Effect
Eliminating all taxes would release billions back into local economies:
-
Families keep 100 percent of their earnings, increasing spending and home ownership.
-
Small businesses expand and hire without the weight of corporate taxes.
-
Property owners gain true ownership — free from annual government rent.
-
Cities and schools are funded through direct revenue distributions from OSWIF, guaranteeing stability.
My plan empowers Oregonians to build wealth generationally instead of watching it disappear into bureaucracy.
A Post-Tax Implementation Roadmap
Phase 1 (2026 – 2027)
-
Launch first GeoCity Oregon pilot campus.
-
Establish OSWIF.
-
Begin property- and corporate-tax phase-out.
Phase 2 (2028 – 2030)
-
Expand geothermal network statewide.
-
Implement AI-licensing and carbon-exchange systems.
-
Issue initial citizen dividends.
Phase 3 (2030 – 2032)
-
Eliminate state income taxes entirely.
-
Fully fund all services through sovereign revenues.
-
Oregon becomes America’s first Tax-Free State.
Addressing the Critics
Some say taxes are “the price of civilization.” I disagree. Civilization isn’t built on taking — it’s built on creating.
-
Accountability: My plan includes AI-driven transparency dashboards so every dollar is tracked in real time.
-
Resilience: GeoCity and OSWIF diversify risk across renewable energy, innovation, and carbon markets.
-
Fairness: No more punishing hard work — everyone benefits from shared prosperity.
Ending the Cycle of Mismanagement
Oregon’s current budget model is unsustainable. We borrow, tax, and cut — then repeat. My plan ends that cycle once and for all.
Instead of extracting value from citizens, the state itself becomes a productive enterprise — one that generates wealth, protects the environment, and invests directly in people.
That’s real fiscal leadership.
The Moral Argument for a Tax-Free State
As Governor, I believe in economic freedom as a human right. No Oregonian should be forced to surrender a portion of their labor just to exist within their own state.
My plan transforms government into a partner in prosperity, not an overseer of it. When citizens are free from taxation, they become investors, innovators, and stewards of their own future.
A Vision for Generations
When historians look back, they will remember Oregon as the first state to abandon the outdated tax economy and embrace the sovereign economy — one powered by geothermal energy, AI innovation, and human creativity.
GeoCity Oregon will not only power our cities; it will power a revolution in governance.
This is my plan.
This is my promise as your next Governor.
Together, we will make Oregon the world’s first truly tax-free, self-sustaining, sovereign state. 🌲
No more income taxes. No more property taxes. No more business taxes. No more excuses.
Just prosperity, freedom, and leadership — for every Oregonian.
