Another robbery is the taxable income equation and the effects on everyone in a community. For instance, why should the infrastructure in Seattle, WA be literally crumbling before our eyes? (I'm not saying the civic budget makers are blameless here, but something is not right with this equation)
Also, it is not just the home of Bezos and Gates, but multiple other cities according to this audit released by SDOT on 09/11/2020: http://www.seattle.gov/Documents/Departments/CityAuditor/auditreports/2020_03_SeattleBridges_FinalReport.pdf http://www.seattle.gov/Documents/Departments/CityAuditor/aud...
(Poor bridge conditions: Chicago 14%, Pittsburgh 13%, Seattle 6%, Minneapolis 5%, DC 4%, and Portland 3%)
- elindbe2 6y agoCan you elaborate on what equation you're referring to?
- klmadfejno 6y agoI think he just means the income tax brackets are not progressive enough
- DeonPenny 6y agoThat doesn't seem like that Bezo or Gates fault though. Seattle all things being equal would have more money person citizen than they ever had in the past. It seems as if its almost all the fault of the government and the increase of taxable income is negatively correlated with those things getting fixed.
