THE CITY OF SEATTLE APPROVED AN INCOME TAX, BUT FACES COURT BATTLE

Jon Government

Seattle has done one thing effectively: drive out earners. Anyone making over $250,000 within city limits of Seattle is now subject to a new income tax, but the new law is likely to face a court battle over its unconstitutionality.
The cheers from the socialists as this blatant constitutional violation was on full display was possibly the most horrific part of the entire debacle. People are actually cheering and happy that the government is stealing money from those they don’t even know. It’s like humanity has never existed.
To make matters worse, the tax isn’t even constitutional, let alone legal. Washington state’s own constitution clearly says that an income tax, especially a ‘progressive’ one, enacted as a punishment for success, is a constitutional violation, but politicians have never cared about the constitutionality of the laws they enact.
