So now you want an unconstitutional millionaires tax Because you have done polling and if you can tempt Brian Heywood to run an initiative against you then your union bosses are all lined up to spend $10’s of millions of dollars to paint me, millionaires, business owners, entrepreneurs, small manufacturers, successful start ups and anyone stupid enough to help grow the economy here as villains, as bad guys who are making it harder for the average citizen. When, in point of fact, it is your party who for 40 years has been taxing and spending while failing miserably in schools, roads, infrastructure, crime, homelessness, affordability. It is all on you. You want citizens to: Please ignore the billions you already take from citizens making their life more expensive. Please ignore the $9billion you just increased taxes by and still can’t keep up with the wasteful spending increases Please ignore the money that has been incompetently lost by the state Please ignore the money that has fraudulently disappeared from state coffers Please ignore the fact that you cannot track the impact on the climate of the $4.5 billion and counting you have taken from struggling citizens at the pump just from the CCA hidden gas tax Oh and please ignore the constitution and the law that was passed last year that prohibits the state, counties, or cities from issuing an income tax And don’t forget that Olympia democrats are already defining millionaires as people making $125K or more a year And above all everyone please ignore the absolutely horrible polling numbers that show Bob Ferguson is not a popular guy. He needs union money and union support quick or he might get challenged from the Left so here he is to sacrifice the formerly thriving business community on the alter of Union demands. Millionaires move, average citizens get screwed. This played out in California, and is beginning to happen in WA state.
