Washington state is doing everything that they can to drive away the people who pay the most money in taxes, just like NY, IL and CA.

Say goodbye to your highly compensated healthcare workers. They are in demand all over the place.

imposing an excise tax on the annual compensation paid to certain highly compensated hospital employees That sounds like a bill of attainder.

I predict an exodus of health care administrators from Washington state.

“excess compensation”?
That pretty much describes all of the UC administration. It’s obscene how much those hacks make.

Oh I could have pimped myself out.....for lot's of money. But I stayed local....FWIW

Besides the constitutional issues, couldn’t they just change their titles?

Hasn’t D.C. been doing that to us for decades?

The flip side of this, however, is that the more the Left makes the job of hospital administration one in which people’s wealth is confiscated and they cannot make a decent living, the fewer people will go into hospital administrationGood.
Healthcare quality in general will suffer improve greatly.
Fixed it.

I find it interesting that Dems seem to be obsessed with taxing income.
But they don’t seem to care even slightly about taxing wealth.
I’m not suggesting taxing wealth is a good idea, but it seems someone with a few $Million or $Billion in wealth would be a more appropriate target that a person who actually works for a living and negotiates a higher than average level of compensation freely with an employer.
Could it be that Dems rely heavily on the wealthy to fund their causes and the price for that largess is to ensure that club stays as small as possible?

“Socialists just take every single thing and turn it into a vehicle for poverty and death.”
Yeah you can quote me on that.

Well, a huge percentage of health care workers are left leaning socialists, so they should pony up and be happy about it.

Money all belongs to the Marxist state, not to the dorky little American people.
Someday the dimwit Dems will say “Hey, I don’t like this like I thought I would.”
They say people vote their way into socialism and then have to fight their way out of it.

‘excess compensation’ Ahhh ... politicians and bureaucrats: Experts on everything. Back in 2020, politicians and bureaucrats had the insufferable gall to decree which businesses and employees were "essential" and which were not. They wrecked the economy.
