[4 of 4] The logic of additional taxes on top of a robust B&O tax does not make sense & will hurt our state’s competitive position. Individuals & companies make better investment decisions to support their communities vs governmental bodies that are not accountable to results.

[3 of 4] Businesses in Washington State have thrived, and the B&O tax revenues derived from their successes resulted in an unprecedented budget surplus. Now, the state has implemented a capital gains tax, which is effectively a state income tax.

[2 of 4] Washington has been a great place to build businesses, not just for the tech industry, but for innovative and sustainable companies of all industries and sizes.

Do you want more taxes that illegally follow you wherever you go? Why the ‘excise tax’ on income was already declared illegal by a lower court (supreme court hears the case next) and is detrimental to WA’s future | The Seattle Times

OpEd piece from @mattmcilwain - worth a read. We need to be competitive in attracting and retaining talent and businesses. Moreover, we are already generating surpluses.

Watching results come in for GA senate race and reflecting on recent WA gov elections. You could stand up two cardboard boxes and you would likely get the same results. Sad we have moved away from voting for the best person to voting the party.
