The people "leading" seattle are the worst kind of people to be in charge of anything. They are vile - proof of that is their love of communism/socialism. What's worse is they keep getting re-elected by hoards of fools and likely felons and dead people.

SEATTLE -- Amazon is flexing its muscles making its opposition known to a proposed Seattle tax by bringing a halt to all planning on a massive project scheduled for construction in Downtown Seattle, and may tweak its plans to occupy a new downtown skyscraper.

“I can confirm that pending the outcome of the head tax vote by City Council, Amazon has paused all construction planning on our Block 18 project in downtown Seattle and is evaluating options to sub-lease all space in our recently leased Rainier Square building," says Amazon Vice President Drew Herdener.

The proposed "head tax" would apply only to those companies with $20 million or more annually in taxable gross receipts as measured under the City’s Business and Occupation tax. The city estimates that will be 500 businesses, including Amazon. Those businesses would be charged 26 cents per hour per employee up to $500 maximum per employee per year. Amazon would pay more than $20 million under the proposal, according to the Associated Press.



It seems only fair that as so many struggle to make their way through a tax system that’s rigged in favor of large corporations, that we ask those same corporations to financially contribute to the public health and housing solutions designed to address those consequences.

“Greater shared responsibility equals greater shared prosperity for all, businesses and residents alike.”


HEY PEOPLE....That 'extra money' this tax would create - IS NOT YOUR MONEY, you thieving bastards.

I've got a first cousin that lives in Seattle. Full blown leftist "artist" jerk off to the core. Good place for him, 2,500 miles away from me.

When it comes right down to it, good ole WI isn't that bad. Madison and Milwaukee are leftist toilets, but when you get outside of that, WI is full of good conservative people. I know plenty.
