First before any of you scream about the reduced tax revenue due to COVID... STOP right there! Washington was one of only a handful of states that saw an INCREASE in revenues during the pandemic and only Idaho had a larger increase. The legislature has a FULLY funded budget ready to go. Yet some greedy state policymakers want to crush the very spirit of taxpayers with a capital gains tax. The bill is
With the feds led by a full trifecta of big tax and spend politicians, Washington should be happy with their big fat surplus of revenue, and let the state's business recover from the COVID nightmare. Locals should be flooding the email boxes and mailboxes of every legislator from Democrat to republican and make it clear they vote for this, they find a new job!
This isn't the first time bloodsuckers in Olympia have tried some form of income tax scheme. Usually it is when the state is facing revenue losses or budget shortfalls. This is egregious what they are suggesting and they will no doubt try to make the case they are "sticking it to the rich." They are not, they are sticking it to all of us.
Just say no to government greed. The bill is Senate Bill 5096... BOOOOO.... HISSSS!
