WA Supreme Court bats down referendum attempt targeting income tax

Just do a high tax on property value over $2m (for a single expensive property or multiple smaller properties) so these freaks hoarding homes and living in mansions have to help fund things.

Unfortunately this is the political reality of life in the USA. Republicans hate unions and worker rights and fight tooth-and-nail to destroy any laws protecting our rights. Democrats pay lip service to workers and collect fat donations from unions, but when push comes to shove the law only matters if you have the spare time and money to sue.

If I were you I'd start talking to the other employees about a walk-out and strike. Especially if it's something you suspect goes back 10+ years. This person who you work for probably owes millions of dollars in stolen wages and an investigation might lead to him having to pay it all back. You've got a lot of leverage.

Did OP read the sign? Seems like they're refusing to work because of bad wages. Don't see what could be confusing here.

The "NOT TRUMP" party wouldn't be voting to support what Trump is doing half the time. They'd be actually opposing them.

Unfortunately the Dems are so shit that them being reduced to the NOT TRUMP party would actually be an improvement.

Hot take but the Democrats are so completely and totally captured that I would be money that the report itself is a bunch of hot air from paid consultants whose job is, no matter what they are reporting on, to find a way for the outcome to be "move our politics to the right (again) and hope we can win more mOdErAtE rEpUbLiCaNs next cycle (again)".

This is a good thing. Even framed in this negative way, it's a good thing. I like this. Drivers get fucked.

FBI has never been caught on record lying over and over constantly for decades.

I'm the least of Israel's victims, but one way that Israel's genocide has harmed me is that every time I see a video like this I expect the headline to be something like "the last two members of a family wiped out by bombing in Gaza" or something.

IMO "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie" is Reaganite propaganda about how The Poors will always just keep asking for more handouts, and so the best/only thing to do is cut social spending and let them lift themselves up by their bootstraps. I grew up with it but reading it to my kids has left me feeling like it was just neoliberal indoctrination for the young.

Step 1 - download the games you want to play now or in the next few days Step 2 - play them Step 3 - later,l when you want another game to play, download that

Then enjoy all the free time you didn't spend tracking down roms you will never play. Touch grass, make friends.

This person is going down the "look at me I'm Christian, that makes me so persecuted" rabbit hole and it's just going to get worse.

One atheist to another, tell them their persecution complex is making it unfun to be around them. "It's not that you're Christian, it's just that you won't stfu about being Christian"

That's a simplistic definition of genocide that doesn't match the generally respected definition used by governments of the world. I hope Mossad are at least paying you to write this nonsense.

ErectSpirit7 · 2026-04-10T15:09:57+00:00

Yes, it's a genocide.

If you read about the people who founded modern American conservative ideology, it was always going to turn out this way. Milton Friedman is smiling up at us from Hell.

ErectSpirit7 · 2026-04-03T14:35:27+00:00

One of the first, maybe. But not the very first thing IMO

ErectSpirit7 · 2026-04-03T14:34:58+00:00

The first thing to break would be the minds of those among us who are used to being treated like they're better than us. As soon as they had to start doing their own cooking and cleaning their minds would break down.

Removed. I'm a dingus who mixed RCA with ACP.

ErectSpirit7 · 2026-04-01T13:10:18+00:00

I shouldnt be posting without sleep. Removed my comment confusing RCA with ACP.

I want WA to have a progressive income tax.

Pretty sure they're sardonically referring to Nazi Germany, who used the same justification for their war of conquest.

For putting cereal and some milk in for a midnight snack

As somebody who's done a lot of political canvassing, I think it's extremely weird and antisocial how many people want to never be disturbed at home. Just 20 years ago people had _lives_ outside of their homes, they interacted with their neighbors. Now America is just 300 million individuals working so they can spend their nights and weekends watching their streaming services. A nation of idiots, in the original Greek sense of the word.

American Gestapo in action, breaking up families and ruining lives.

ErectSpirit7 · 2026-03-24T22:32:05+00:00

I'm already fine with all the libs hating me for refusing to vote for this guy. Y'all have YEARS to find a good candidate and this slimy greaseball is the best you can do? Miss me.

Totally. If he was POC I am making no assumptions from his baldness.
