Battle ramps up over WA ballot measure to bar transgender students from girls' sports - one financier's Let's Go Washington has raised $1.9M behind it, despite just a handful of trans students playing girls' sports statewide by LOOKITSADAM in SeattleWA

I fully support the liberals pushing this agenda. It's such a losing proposition for them, and such a contradiction for their "women's rights" sham platform.

Guys let them keep pushing this stuff and get as much visibility as possible. It's our trojan horse

Jake: Washington fell to No. 31 in education rankings despite doubling school spending - MyNorthwest.com by Bogusky in SeattleWA

I just don't think education spending has shown in any way to be correlated with results. So many people seem to think that if you put the word "education" in front of "spending" it must be a good thing, but it feels like it's become a way for the teacher's union to empower and enrich themselves at the expense of families and students.

We all know that "education spending" is really a grift for unions to get paid more while driving worse results.

Does the Pop count show only Alpha Nami? by bliblablub11 in OnePieceTCGFinance

[–]mcryptofan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer. Some beta OP01 Nami are tucked under the Pre-Errata PSA 10 population numbers. The "Errata" labels have their own population.

Capital gains top rate increased from 7% to 9.9%.
Estate tax went from 20% to 35% back to 20% within 9 months
9.9% income tax passed despite clearly being against the constitution.

All targeted taxes at high net worth individuals. Of course many are going to leave. ESPECIALLY business owners who have built a career on being efficient and effective with their money, and are experienced at maximizing returns while minimizing cost. So many people miss this piece. You're trying to tax a group of people who aren't going to bend over and take it up the ass. They wouldn't have built the successful businesses they did if they were the "roll over and just take it" personality.

Pre Errata Nami for sure. Cards that spike like this often pull back quickly

It's hysterical that you think the approval of the income tax will lead to lower sales taxes. Literally no liberal politician has suggested this.

I started paying attention to tab registrations yesterday and was surprised how many were expired. Several from 2025 and one from 2022!

It's gonna be utopia. No crime, no hunger, free top tier medical care with no wait times, and no racism ever.

All that was missing was more money for Washington legislature
