Government is bad at creating laws. More at 11
Next up: Seattle sales taxes 11.5% Reason: we want to build hotels for addicts and legalize narcotics
You mean hotels for asylum seekers. Citizens are comfortable in the streets
People need to vote blue no matter who harder.
They should try passing it again but with more rainbow emojis and BLM hashtags.
This is a paid article by the lobby group that is against paying workers. Seattle has no income taxes like CA. It's ok to re-distribute wealth to some extent. Techies will not be poor if they have to shell out 5 dollars more.
That’s what all you liberals say “5 dollars more,” the problem is it adds up until over 60% of every dollar you earn goes to taxes. Don’t forget income tax is only the first theft. Many taxes come after against the same dollar you earned and were already taxed on. Sales tax, capital gains tax, property tax, city tax, state tax, and so on. Poison mentality. Here’s another philosophy: government should take care of the absolute essentials and beyond that individuals know what to do with their money better than the government, and certainly better than democrats.
Read the article please. The extra $5 fee isn’t helping anyone, it’s just making people stop ordering delivery. So, the money stays in the rich guys pocket.
Not all politicians. Just the former members of Seattle council which passed this bill.
Indirect way of saying majority of people is dumb for choosing leaders
