      Seattle is heading for trouble. Amazon is moving thousands of jobs out of the city and nearby Microsoft is going permanent work-from-home—and yet, Seattle's political class insists on punishing businesses with new taxes. Get ready for the realignment.https://www.theverge.com/2020/10/9/21508964/microsoft-remote-work-from-home-covid-19-coronavirus …

      Prediction: tech employees with families are going to move out of the prestige cities (SF, SEA, NYC) and engage in "lifestyle arbitrage": maintaining top-wage employment, while significantly reducing cost of living by moving to cheaper cities and states.

      For years, woke mayors and city councils have assumed that tech companies would provide an endless stream of cash for their social justice projects. Now they're scrambling to figure out how to build utopia in an era of declining municipal budgets. Spoiler: it won't end well.

      On a personal note: my family made this transition in January, moving to a small town an hour outside Seattle. We bought a bigger house, our kids can play outside, and my wife and I both work remote (Amazon, think tanks). Bonus: all our neighbors are conservatives.

      Still in WA, still subject to Seattle hegemony (which is why my fam is working out way out to ID, now that covid has made remote work acceptable)

      True, but the constitutional amendment against a progressive state income tax is the key bulwark. It prevents WA from going full CA.

          Yeah, ID income tax is –ing killer. But attacks on Article I, Section 24 of the state constitution are gaining more and more traction (can ramble on this if you like; got involved with 2A advocacy last session), I can't imagine this one is immune either
