...and jerks the trigger. They just jacked up business taxes up substantially.

Hahahahahahaha

I’m not surprised, just communist being communists

I bet John Galt moves...

This isn't just happening in Blue states. Nashville is trying raise Property Tax's by 35% and other city's and states are going to do the same. They've lost too much revenue by not having businesses open so that they can collect sales tax's.

At least the farce that is government is becoming utterly obvious to anyone with even the most tenuous connection to reality.

I am getting it even though I have no connection with reality.

Like dominoes they will fall.

The nitwit libs are destroying Seattle as we watch. It happened to Camden New Jersey, one of the most prosperous cities in the world in 1965. World HQ for RCA, and for Campbell's Soup, and the biggest shipbuilding industry in America.
Camden looked invulnerable.

They had a race riot in 1969, and another in 1971, and Campbell's, and RCA, and shipbuilding all left town and today Camden is a train wreck.

And we are watching Seattle commit suicide. Citycide? The goofball Mayor and Governor welcome the rioters.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Let the lawless radical Left destroy your city, and tax base.

Then charge the ones you didn't protect for it.

Liberal Logic.

Good

Well , the people of Seattle elected the idiots. The voters always get what they deserve.

I bet real estate agents are having their phones blow up.

In other locations...

They just put a pistol to our heads. Amazon etc. will jack up prices to cover it. We will be the ones paying it.

Does all this mean you can go Chitt on the street downtown? Rio7

LOL.

I think that's been going on for awhile.

“We”?
Not me, I don’t give that Comey prick Bezo my money

This is heartbreaking, NOT... 🤣🤣🤣

All of these chithole cities are helping Biden for the big win.

If he gets in, we certainly WILL be paying for it.

They will line up for federal aid.

They have to sell in Seattle, too.

Rotsa Ruck...

Maybe BLM & Antifa need some new office space though.

Two things. One, cities do not cut programs. Two, as a consequence, they never have enough of your money.

+1!

Plan your work and work your plan. That’s what the liberal politicos have done and it’s falling in place.

Next they’ll totally neuter the police budgets to “save “ that money and cut other services complimented with appropriate layoffs.

Utopia. Venezuela, North.


I feel for the good people that are forced to live there. Not all are liberals.

Nailed it.

Well ain't that just to friggn bad! They voted for what they got. 😆

At this point, in those areas, defunding the police is the only chance you have for a positive outcome should self defense be the order of the day. An unintended consequence, but a consequence, nonetheless.

Strange how that works, ain’t it ?

So they allow their businesses to be destroyed and then they tax those same businesses to pay for their lack of action.

It’s the socialists’ way .

The fact there is no state income tax has been burr in Seattle’s saddle for as long as I’ve lived here. They’ve tried to back door it six ways to Sunday.

I bet one employer with MANY employees earning over $150k is gonna be exempt. Want to guess which one?

Oddly enough, real estate is still going nuts.

I don't. This stuff didn't happen overnight. It's long since been past the time for good people to leave the Communist schittholes.

Anyone who stays behind enemy lines until their property values bottoms out deserves whatever they get.

Anywhere you wish - pick 'yer spot - poops away ! 'Yer protected.

If Seattle implements a 100% income tax... it will make doing your taxes at the end of the year much much easier.

At least they are all Americans, you can tell by their names.

The JumpStart Seattle proposal was introduced by City Council member Teresa Mosqueda as an alternative to a larger payroll tax backed by her colleagues Tammy Morales and Kshama Sawant.

Not good. Its in the deep states plan. They are driving out the dumbasses into red states like Texas - on purpose. They know the people cant flee forever. They will come here and Fl.

They will find a way to get around it.

BS

A lot of us other places vote against the Commie-libs, and we still get their crap. Rapidly shifting demographics are sometimes the demon that destroys once great places.

Here in the NYC metro area real estate sales are booming. All those liberal fools from NYC are bailing out, and fast. They're moving to NJ and Connecticut. NYC will never recover from de Blasio's idiocy.

Like Texas and Florida.

Good to see you back, Safari !

Only to check some messages. Let the sewer here flow without me again.

Hang around, Pard.

We need a little Clorox every now and again.

I read a piece on that Ray, 35% is a BIG jump. My thoughts are the tourism dropped off a cliff, and I bet Branson Mo. did as well. NYC will revisit the blight of the 70’s, my neighbor said the city is a ghost town in the Upper East Side every day beginning around 6:00pm. He has only been outside his apartment 4 times since February, incredible!

Like Nobama said, elections have consequences!

The west coast of the USA, for those who have not experienced every mile of it, might be the most beautiful country in the union, if not the world.

In my youth my father would took a month off and we camped from the US-Mexico border to Vancouver Island, BC., 5 or 6 years in a row.

Rogue River, Redwoods, San Fran, Tillimook for some cheese curds, San Juan Islands...... Big Sur. Tomales Bay for clams. Olympic National Park. Vancouver Island.

Damn.... Such beautiful country.

But you couldn't pay me enough to live there now. Chit show of liberal insanity.

Local tyrants usually live somewhere nearby.

This - on the mark - have traveled through and spent a lot of time in almost all of it during the past 50 years. A steady and deliberate social decline - one could see it progressing - in 1992 turned down a very attractive assignment because it would have meant working and living in that "fabulous" area along the bay south of SF. No way.

The whole west coast area has often been called a victim of its own successes.

Proves it is possible to shoot yourself twice in the head.

Hmmm. So the Clintons were actually telling the truth....

Couldn’t have said it better. Collect your taxes from the rioters.

How do you “short” real estate?
