Personally, I don't think Seattle tax payers should subsidize wealthy tax dodging suburbs like Medina or Hunts Point, or sprawling exurbs like Black Diamond that bulldoze our region's remaining forests and farmland.

On the road sales tax, I feel like this is just asking for Seattle to revenge-implement congestion pricing to pay for transportation infrastructure.
In education funding it's stuff like this all the way down the line because the rest of the state has no solidarity with a city the size of Seattle and its challenges.
Employ starving map makers!
It’s gonna be toasty in those not air-conditioned school buildings on Monday…
If the King County roads sales tax annoys you, let me tell you how education funding works in this state. Because it's "not fair" to the school districts whose residents keep rejecting levies, we are capped in Seattle by how much revenue we can collect from our school levies.
