At least the wealthiest 5 percent are getting wealthier. Thank goodness we didn't pass that tax.

you let the camels nose in the tent (income tax state) we will all be paying it. this state has dreamed of taxing each and every one of us to death for decades. you think its about protecting the wealthy , and you are wrong. you let them tax the rich and 6 months later it will be all of us. cut spending on bullshit projects ie tunnels,stadiums,museums for glass etc. then you'll find some money. the answer isn't paying tax twice on our incomes, its paying for real shit , not bullshit. but then you probly don't pay taxes at all , so you know nothing about that.

Maybe you haven't noticed the "Tax" section on the sales receipts for everything you purchase in this state but, we're already being taxed. Ditching the sales tax in favor of an income tax like the majority of the states in this country is the way to go.

Haha here we go again with the income tax arguments. Its funny how all the libtards on the stranger are apart of the minority(roughly 30%) of the ppl in favor of that poorly written, misinforming innitiative. I cant believe all you hipsters dont freaking get it that the legislature can change the parameters of 1098 without our approval. At leat Eyman(yeah i know, douche) made it so now the legislature has to have a two thirds vote instead of 51%. This aint Republican or Democrate rhetoric talkin, its COMMON SENSE.

You have ensured that no-one will take you seriously with use of such terms as "libtards" and "hipsters." Additionally, you have no business talking about effective writing. In addition to simple, stupid errors, your writing flows poorly and reads like bathroom-wall writing.

Go back and get yourself some good "book learnin'."

Your tax money was spent on Ideas for a Washington Motto and keeping One sex offender Downtown at a cost of two million a year plus a total renovation and equipping of a building in the SoHo district?

Or was it a New Prison that was built on loose soil so it started sinking or was it the New Computer system the police purchased but never used as it totally sucked?

I don't see how you can write an article without dragging at least one skeleton out of the closet but as you may have a few hundred come flying out its no wonder people option to keep that door closed.
