@AntonStetner I live in King County. I appreciate what you have pointed out about new construction affecting existing home prices. An investor could take advantage of the new zoning laws near rapid transit/light rail if they bought my housew/ 9600 sf lot. How do I get a good price for my home?

@4thOfJuly365 Oh my gosh. That is beautiful. Thank you!

In case you couldn't tell, people REALLY don't like the income tax. We've hit a new record for the number of signatures gathered in the shortest amount of time! Keep telling everyone you know to sign their name and repeal the income tax!

@SpankyBear_ @PNWForestKing Lol! Have you checked your electric bill lately?

Pass the Save America Act!

Iran Attack PSA: You're about to be bombarded with Democrat members of congress and the media calling the attack on Iran "illegal" and "unconstitutional," while claiming the president is required to obtain the approval of congress prior to launching military attacks on foreign targets.

These people will be collectively engaging in a lie by omission, as they are all aware that the War Powers Resolution allows for presidents to authorize attacks without pre-approval or notification of congress, with a requirement to brief congress within 48 hours and obtain their official authorization to continue attacks beyond 60 days.

They will all assume we are as ignorant of the truth as they are pretending to be.

Feel free to copy this attachment and send it to anyone spouting the "illegal, unconstitutional" nonsense.

Unrealized gains tax for Gen-Z:

You buy a Pokémon card for $50.

Someone offers you $500 for it. You say no. You love that card. You're keeping it.

The government says: "Cool, but that card is worth $500 now. You owe us $100 in taxes."
You: "…I didn't sell it."

Government: "Don't care. Pay up."

You don't have $100 lying around. So you're forced to sell the card you love just to pay a tax on money you never received.

Next month? That card drops back to $50.

Your card is gone. Your money is gone. And the government shrugs.

That's a wealth tax on unrealized gains. They don't pay you back the tax...

Now picture this.

Your mom calls you crying. She has to sell the house she raised you in. Not because she can't afford it. She's lived there 30 years. It's paid off.

But some website says it's worth more now and the government says she owes $15,000 she doesn't have.

So she sells your childhood home. The kitchen where she made you breakfast. The doorframe where she marked your height every birthday.

Gone.

To pay a tax on money that was never real.

Now picture the opposite.

Your dad put everything into his small business. For 20 years he built it from nothing. One year the business is "valued" at $2 million on paper. He owes a massive tax bill. He empties his savings. Sells his truck. Borrows money. Pays it.

Next year the market crashes. His business is worth $200,000.

He lost everything to pay a tax on a number that doesn't exist anymore.

Does the government give him his money back?
No.

Does the government give him his truck back?
No.

Does the government care?
No.

They sold this idea as "taxing billionaires." But billionaires have armies of lawyers, offshore accounts, and trusts. They'll be fine.

You know who won't be fine? Your mom. Your dad. Your neighbor with a small business. The farmer down the road who's had the same land for four generations and now has to sell it because dirt got expensive.

You're not taxing wealth. You're taxing people for owning things.

It's like getting a parking ticket for a car you might drive somewhere someday.

They want you to own nothing and be happy. To fund the fraud, waste and abuse of the welfare state they created.

There is enough money. More tax isn't needed. It's all a lie. But you've been gaslit into believing this is a rich vs poor debate.

I hope you understand what's at stake.

It sets a VERY bad precedent in Olympia.

Crowd roars as Kid Rock pays tribute to the Bible and Jesus at the All-American Halftime Show.

Beautiful lyrics. You would never, ever hear anything like this sung at the Super Bowl.

“There’s a book that’s sitting in your house somewhere that could use some dusting off. There’s a man who died for all our sins hanging from the cross. You can give your life to Jesus, and he’ll give you a second chance…”

Washington state has one of the most vibrant tech communities in the world, but it's under threat from the new anti-tech, anti-innovation, capital gains tax, passed in 2021.

I was curious how tech workers felt about this tax so I visited Microsoft and Amazon (see video below). What I learned shocked me.

Many employees of these companies (who receive a large portion of them compensation in the form of stock) were not even aware that Washington's legislature had passed a capital gains tax that would affect them.

This was not by accident. Politicians in Olympia designed the tax to initially apply to a fairly small set of people (the threshold at which it applies is $250,000). For years they had attempted to create a widespread income tax in WA by initiative, but they were repeatedly voted down by Washingtonians.

But once they found a way to open the door to this new capital gains tax (by absurdly claiming it's not an income tax, but an excise tax), they immediately set to work on making it more widespread.

Bill 5335 has been introduced to modify the capital gains tax so that the threshold at which applies will drop to $15,000 (a 94% drop, massively expanding the net of people it applies to), while increasing the rate from 7% to 8.5%.

The increase in rate would mean that Washingtonians would see a greater than 50% increase in their tax burden on capital gains (sale of stocks, bonds, cryptocurrencies and other assets such as small businesses).

When I explained these facts to the tech employees I met at Microsoft and Amazon most of them supported a repeal of the capital gains tax.

We have one chance to get Washington back to its long tradition of not punishing success and welcoming the world's best and brightest to our state.

This election, please vote Yes on initiative I-2109.

Vote yes, Pay less.
