Jeff Bezos Responds to Seattle Officials After Leaving For Miami Over Wealth Tax


Seattle’s political elite may have just received the most devastating financial reality check in modern city history after Jeff Bezos quietly confirmed that Washington’s aggressive new tax structure played a major role in his decision to flee to Florida, a move that reportedly saved the Amazon founder close to $1 billion while leaving Seattle staring at a collapsing revenue model built around billionaires who can leave faster than lawmakers can pass another tax bill. What makes the situation even more humiliating for city leaders is that Bezos did not scream, threaten, or launch some dramatic billionaire rebellion against Mayor Katie Wilson after she publicly laughed, waved “bye,” and dismissed concerns about wealthy residents leaving the city. Instead, he simply ran the numbers, changed his address to Miami, sold billions in Amazon stock, and calmly pointed out that the tax revenue Washington expected from him no longer exists because he no longer lives there. “Apparently, telling the richest man connected to your city that he’s irrelevant works slightly worse when he takes half your projected tax model with him.” As Starbucks founder Howard Schultz escapes to a $44 million Florida penthouse, Amazon shifts workers out of Seattle, downtown vacancy rates explode, and lawmakers double down on even higher millionaire taxes despite a near 50% drop in capital gains revenue within a single year, critics are now warning that Seattle may have become the most terrifying live experiment in America showing what happens when ideological politics collides headfirst with economic math and the people funding the system quietly walk away.

Time To Rid Government Of Leftism


And restore America to her rightful place as a shining city on a hill.


America’s left turn in the 1960s delivered a writing on the wall that was clearly read by Randall Terry in 1994:

In 1959 it would have been unthinkable to the average American — whether Democrat, Republican or Independent — that children would be murdered by abortion, homosexuals would be indoctrinating our children and demanding ‘marriage’ rights, that our surgeon general would be calling for the legalization of criminal drugs, and the distribution of condoms to ten-year-olds, that our tax money would pay for a crucifix floating in a vat of urine, that prayer and Bible reading would be illegal in government schools, that new-age, one-world, indoctrination would be standard fare. None of these atrocities could have been foreseen (much less discussed in mixed company) a scant 35 years ago. Where will it end? Will what is unthinkable and unspeakable today be commonplace 35 years hence? One shudders to imagine….

This prophetic insight regarding the Left’s incursion into America’s culture came from one who was arrested many times for acting against attempts to make acts of blatant injustice “legitimate.” In 2017, Randall Terry was arrested for crossing a no-trespassing zone in order to protest the guest appearance of President Obama for a commencement address at the “Catholic” Notre Dame. Terry was doing what the university administrators failed to do — disallow a public figure to lend legitimacy to the practice of abortion, at a Catholic university. Terry was justifiably acting to denounce the administration’s decision to stage a high profile abomination against the teachings of the Catholic Church.

There is no need to imagine the outcome of the continued subversion of justice in America. It is evident in the press, in daily commentary, in painful personal stories. It is an open book and ongoing lesson in the results of ignoring morality. Whoever does not notice the before and after — the “cause and effect” of morally defective behavior and action in America — is either too young to be aware of what has been done to this country by the Marxist Left or has been brainwashed by the mainstream media into accepting a false reality.

Is bangs part of a mullet now?

No motive has been determined

The DOT used to be strict on all trucking regs
Now we’ve got dudes that couldn’t pass the DL test at the local trooper facility
Much less an English test
What. Could. Possibly. Go. Wrong?

What law did he break, exactly?

I order fly lice

See Charlotte, NC
since the mayor that resigned was black, naming an interim that’s white is disgusting
It “belongs” to blacks

:rotflmao:

there is accountability. it's called the first amendment.
