I’ve said it a million times: I support mitigation, and I support our stay-at-home order. But I cannot make any sense of how Governor Jay Inslee has been enforcing these policies.
This week, Inslee emphasized that the state will resume public day-use of state parks, but with no overnight camping.
Uh, Jay … walk five minutes in any direction from your Olympia office. You’ll see hundreds of people overnight camping with no social distancing. We also have those campers in Seattle, Tacoma, Everett, Bremerton, and all other cities in the region.
**SNIP**
Tuesday’s Seattle Times had a story about how construction has continued at the Seattle Center Coliseum over the last month. Apparently they have to be ready for the NHL.
But I’ve heard from citizens who have gotten construction loans and the shutdown devastated them. Same for contractors and private-sector blue-collar tradesmen. Why is hockey more important than private-sector families?
For years, I’ve said that all local government spending is completely unsustainable when the economy goes south, and that a state income tax is the Holy Grail for state Democrats.

Dori is correct... the state’s coffers are drying up...
Jay Inslime is fascist leftist hack
he just stacked the State Supreme Court with two unelected appointees (an injun and lesbian)
they almost released the Green River murderer - anything can happen its scary.
With Democrats EVERYTHING is about politics. That's the underlying motive behing their every action and demand.
The state coffers aren’t drying up because of coronavirus or the lack of an income tax. Tennessee has the coronavirus and no income tax but is the most financially sound state in the country. Why? Because we don’t spend money on liberal pipe dream crap.
NEVER....EVER....ELECT ANOTHER DEMOCRAT!!
there is absolutely no science based reason not to be a full employment and up and running....
the arse even banned fishing for a while....
we need a strong pub candidate for governor and we need to take back at least one of the houses....
we have too many selfish voters on the conservative side though....they're disloyal, lazy,arrogant....
income tax and massive property tax increases coming so Inbred can hand out millions to his supporters....like the indian casinos for one....
Alfred E Neuman is a genius compared to Inslee. Fear and panic have invaded his mind, and he is paralyzed by them. He is absolutely clueless.
He goes much longer and he won’t have to worry about income taxes. There won’t be any jobs to be had..
Wonderful idea...but sadly not possible. Reality is a royal b***h.
Washington has 39 counties. Of these counties, most elections are controlled from King County. It is not the capital of the state, but the unwritten rule is: what King County wants, King County gets. Why?
Seattle and it’s environs. FULL to the brim with brain-dead liberals who have no concept of freedom, save for their own pleasures and vices, which you MUST accept or face their scorn.
And it’s a damned shame.
Is this what is going on in Nevada with Governor Sissy Pants? Using the crisis to institute a state sales tax?
Somebody would have had to take care of that situation.
We lived in Downtown Seattle years ago during an election, and I had to call ALL the Republicans to make sure they got out to vote.....there were 11....ELEVEN Republicans, my husband and I were 2.........and there were 789 DEMOCRATS in that district!!! Sick Place!
