WA is culturally progressive, and economically regressive. It's perfect for wealthy people who have gay friends and like to smoke pot. Not so great for the work

- klardotsh 3y agoI won't entirely disagree that it's fiscally regressive (most regressive tax policy in the country IIRC), but we're talking about the city of Seattle specifically which tends to favor worker rights a bit more than the statewide government does. See: sick leave policy, minimum wage policy, etc.
