After the historic Amazon Tax victory last week in Seattle, our movement has just won $18 million/year (at least) of the Amazon Tax to be dedicated for affordable Central District homes for Black working-class and poor families. This is truly historic and first-time for our city.

Government stole $18 million from Peter to give to Paul, and a huge chunk went to the house (govt). Government didn’t create anything. Society becomes poorer overall, and government enriched itself. Par for the course for socialism. Newsflash... socialism fails every time.

Seattle, you get what you deserve. That being said, why are you stopping at this one little tax? There are TONS of rich white people you can take more money from. Why not implement a wealth tax, where a person’s net worth over $50,000 is taxed at 20% per year?
