I guess the Seattle exodus is not fast enough for them.

This should speed things up.

The donut hole city model is returning.

After the 60’s riots, people & businesses moved out of the city into the suburbs, leaving the city center a husk of its former self.

Some cities, like Detroit, never recovered. Others, after a few decades, did.

Now the donut is back.

In March and April, Seattle looked like a ghost town with all of the businesses shut down.

Then came the riots.

Then came CHOP.

“Hey, I know how to get Seattle jump-started again! We’ll tax everyone more that works in Seattle!”

I know some folks that LOVE working from home. I wonder if there will be a loop hole for folks working from home? They aren’t coming into the city and stressing the infrastructure. Of course that isn’t what this tax is about, but it would make sense to me.
