120 workers in Kent, Washington showed up to work -- and found out their jobs are gone.

Not because the company is failing... but because it’s expanding somewhere else.

In this video, we break down what really happened with Rise Baking Company, why those jobs are moving to Utah, and how the timing lines up with Washington’s new tax law signed by Bob Ferguson.

Demagogic Party Millionaires Tax is the reason.

Boo. Frikking. Hoo.

Well, directed towards any Lefties or Liberals there. There are Conservatives in Washington state, we know that, and I feel sympathy for them.

[Skwor]

Vote in socialist policies lose jobs, tale as old as time.

[quantim]

“There are Conservatives in Washington state,”

And the red states get redder and pick up more electoral votes too.

[rlmorel]

Yes. I sympathize with them. I am in the same boat. My wife is not inclined to leave, which means...I won’t either.

If Biden were still the President, the 120 workers at Rise Baking could open a DayCare and Biden would make sure they made at least 6 digit payments from the Feds.

The definition of “Schaudenfraude”.

[catnipman]

couldn’t they “break it down” in a written essay?

[hinckley buzzard]

Washington has a long history of government being dominated by mentally aberrant leftists. This attempt to confiscate money from innocent citizens is just the latest.

Same same FRiend.

[SunkenCiv]

Who? Break what down?

The red states are picking up more votes. But they are not necessarily redder.

Reports are that TX is trending toward PURPLE. GA is already PURPLE. In GA the 2 leading R candidates for governor are busy throwing dirt at each other. This is not attractive to the new residents of GA who fled the dirt up north.

If there is dirt to throw, Rs need to reject both and find one without dirt.

Seattle and Tacoma, plus Olympia are TOTAL LEFTIST.....The whole rest of the state is RED!

Children and grandchildren are here....we have a nice home out in the country on 5 acres a garden a big shop...no where else would we be able to buy what we got now.....

[rlmorel]

Very nice to hear...well, I hear Washington is beautiful. Massachusetts is too.

Ruined by Leftists.

[rlmorel]

Eh. There are worse things in life.

I could live in Somalia!

[Vaduz]

Sounds like it

For every action there’s a reaction.

[31R1O]

But there you could be a real life pirate!
