Yep, and imo since it’s an issue of government creation via forced shut downs, the government should provide alternative solutions to people who can no longer afford housing.


The issue is the government doesnt pay. The taxpayer does, one way or another.

yep.

which is why i have a hard time saying, "let's just write a check" regardless of who caused the shut downs.

Wait until someone puts up a billboard in North Baton Rouge informing the good citizens that there is no police force in Seattle and a one way ticket on Southwest is only $79.


I would purchase a one way ticket for Gravy's fat arse, SWB, JBE and both of the SJW's.

Yeah I am fine with Seattle doing this as long as they do not infringe on my right to defend myself when I am there.

But I'm very suspicious that self defense is about to become "racist."

Let them do it. It'll be a nice social experiment that we can all watch fail miserably.

"Make all drugs free & if a person can't handle the responsibility, it's his fault". And who ends up cleaning up the mess? Have you ever seen a person high on H ? Crack? The after effects? Drug addicts will not be able to get health insurance. Who pays for their over dose ER visits? Taxpayers. Re the homeless problem, local LEO and numerous homeless people shown on videos say that all the homeless there have drug problems. By all means put them in free, nice rentals & that will cure them, right? Utopia is just a fantasy.

This is factually incorrect. Amazon is moving 1 team there by 2023. There are no plans, at least public plans, for Amazon to move the vast majority of their Seattle workforce.



Operations is moving to Bellevue, which is 15,000 employees. I'd bet anything that Amazon only expands in Bellevue from now on and doesn't renew any leases in Seattle. They own a lot of office space in Seattle though, so they'll be stuck with that. They'll get creative and probably convert as much of their space in Seattle to hoteling desks and have the employees who come in a couple of days per week be "located" in a different city. Seattle is stupid if they think companies aren't going to try everything possible to avoid this. Especially when you have multiple cities nearby that are business friendly.
