They have cheated elections and have had complete control of every aspect of the state for 30+ years. The people are paying some of the highest carbon taxes in the country and are going to ban natural gas, even after the people voted no. The next governor, Bob Ferguson, is a further left version than Inslee. Glad we got out.

This is so sad. Such a beautiful state.

Another high 6 figure job with the state.

Let me also guess the pension plan for state workers is so far in the red, its bottomed out and poking through the other side of the planet.

Geeee, wonder why they are going broke?

yes, and they are talking about another 25 cents a gallon on gas after 50 cents as a carbon tax. State is 12 billion in the hole. Never any talk about cutting spending other than the usual fire, police, roads and schools.

West coast controls all 3 states.

At what point do the debtors collect on their debt by seizing the state(s)? Will China own the entire west coast shortly? I dont think the DIM's would object.

Probably not, I am 1/2 hour away from Idaho, China can have it. Doubt Washington is worth 12 billion either.

West Texas sucks soo bad. Riding around town on an electric scooter. Deserted side streets. In a T-Shirt. In December. Lunch $4.00.
I just don't know how much more of this brutal Winter weather out here I can take...

Of course, newest proposed law 25K yes 25K of liability insurance for EACH gun owned. One problem with it, no insurance company provides that coverage. So basically a gun ban. Can't see it happening but who knows.
Wow, good thing I lost mine in the boating accident. No way I could afford that insurance...

I've lived here most of my life, it's the most beautiful state in the union, but dam the hard left politics in a very small portion of the state have ruined it. If King County were eliminated, WA State would be mostly be red. I have been a union carpenter since 1991, most people I work with know in the Seattle area are not voting democrat... even if their unions advise them too. Our working class is not on board with the ruling class in King County.
