I thought Washington didn’t have income tax? I guess they invent other taxes to make up for it?
It will...eventually.
Washington is just another blue state in financial suicide mode.
Our property taxes, and a multitude of “user fees” have been going through the roof. Our own property taxes are set to double next year as compared to just ten years ago. They changed the rules on school levies so that they can hardly ever be defeated.
As an example of how things go... our yearly car tabs were reduced to a $30 flat fee, but in the years since a multitude of additional fees started being tacked on. To where the cheapest old car now costs around $100 a year. These are all in a form that do not have to be approved by the voters.
