I have been discussing the infamous WA Millionaires’ Tax with many people the past weeks.

I have been a Seattleite for almost 10 years now and my social circle is pretty diverse (Big Tech execs, entrepreneurs, non-tech/regular jobs, social workers etc).

It's very interesting to me that a) there are zero people who support this and b) the argumentation of why this is wrong is not coherent. Which is funny on its own because it means this Tax is wrong in so many ways.

The reasons I personally hate it:

> i have 0% confidence the State can use this extra money smartly/efficiently/effectively. it's 2026 and I still don't feel safe to walk with my kids in downtown Seattle. end of discussion
> from a meta/postmodern pov, all this is performative. the only purpose this Tax serves is for local progressives to perform a victory lap VS the bad rich guys. you can even see it from photos like this 👇. they play in a fictional robinhood type of universe.*
> this income tax may not apply to most people in WA but the trickle down effects in the local economy are already visible in conjunction with the already extremely high taxes in gas/sales/property. and I am not referring to howard schultz moving to florida (imo this is irrelevant). i am referring to local small business owners/entrepreneurs (https://t.co/PrbwtUxOVX)

I love Seattle so much and I truly hope it will have a thriving future. But there is a very pessimistic (and likely) scenario that Seattle, due to this Tax + the effects of AI in Big Tech, will end up as a mix of today's Detroit + summer destination whose economy depends on a 2-month tourist period.

What bothers me about this bill, as someone who was born and raised in Seattle and spent half my childhood in Island County, is not just the tax itself. It is the worldview behind it.

Of course we want to support early education, school lunches, and programs that help uplift the most marginalized people in our communities. That is not the issue. The issue is whether the state actually understands who it is targeting, who it is hurting, and whether it can be trusted to distinguish between durable wealth and the fragile economics of people trying to build something.

Washington keeps writing statewide tax policy as if the whole state is Seattle. It is not. This state, Seattle especially, loves to perform its liberalism. It talks constantly about progress, equity, and protecting the vulnerable. But bills like this expose how selective that politics can be. When statewide tax policy is written around a narrow image of wealth, it does not just touch Seattle tech workers. It also reaches family-owned and pass-through businesses across the state, including people from lower socioeconomic backgrounds who built something over time and do not live anything like the caricature of the wealthy.

Across the state, there are family-owned businesses, small operators, and early-stage companies where income is irregular, cyclical, and often tied up in keeping the business alive. In those businesses, the real risk is not the average year. It is the unusual year — the year when several years of work, reinvestment, or one strong season finally shows up as income on paper. That is what this bill misunderstands. It treats that kind of income as excess personal wealth, when in many cases it is the very capital a business needs to survive, hire, grow, and reach the next stage.

That is why this bill is so destructive. It kills family-owned and operated businesses that are already trying to make it. It kills startups before they ever have the chance to become durable. And while the American Dream is often more myth than reality, this bill punishes even the attempt at upward mobility in a system that is already stacked against ordinary people.

As a woman of color founder building a women’s brand, I now find myself researching where I need to move my business in order to give it the best chance of surviving — and where I can eventually build something that rewards the employees who help me get there.

That is the problem with bills like this. Even if today it is 9.9% above $1 million, the moment the mechanism exists, people start asking the obvious next question: when does 9.9 become 10? When does $1 million become $900,000? When do success, marriage, or growth become things the state quietly teaches you to fear?

And I do not absolve myself of responsibility for any of this. I voted for this governor. I contributed to the American Dream Killer, and I 100% regret my vote.

Indiana is expected to hire Colorado State’s Tyson Brown as its new head strength and conditioning coach, sources tell @CBSSports.

Before joining Jim Mora at CSU, helped Mora win 18 games the last two seasons at UConn. Before UConn, was head strength coach at Mississippi State.
