And at the same time, create more homeless.
Were I advising street people in the Pac NW, I'd say "Get a bus ticket to Seattle. They have big bucks waiting for you!"
So Seattle puts a head tax on large employers..to do what? Provide homes for the homeless.
Do ya think the $15 minimum wage had somehing to do with that with fewer emplyment opportunities for low wage workers?
It must be something in the water.
I left Seattle for rural KY seven years ago. My oldest daughter and her husband just visited and found a rental in Louisville. They’re moving here from Ballard in two months. They want to start a family and that was the final straw that convinced them to get out of that hell hole.
It’s a shame. Seattle used to be a nice place.
A lot of my LIBERAL friends in Seattle are complaining all over FaceBook, btw. The town has gone full leftist, which does not please thinking liberals. I suspect we are going to see a very serious downturn there in the next decade.
