Your comment is dripping with opinion and utterly devoid of any attempt at supporting evidence. I've lived both places. Seattle is not a low-tax paradise, nor are tax dollars completely and utterly squandered in California. It is gross how, the more money one makes, the more entitled one feels to not have to give a dime back. It's a game to them.

> Seattle is not a low-tax paradise Excepting special situations for certain PR and USVI residents, Washington state is as close to a tax haven as a US citizen is going to find. > nor are tax dollars completely and utterly squandered in California This depends on what you think the dollars should be used for. Most taxpayers would like to see their taxes used for provision of public services, and not in service of a vast public employee enrichment scheme. From this POV, the money is in fact squandered. > It is gross how, the more money one makes, the more entitled one feels to not have to give a dime back It's less about greed and more about abuse of generosity. See prior point.
