Truth.

It also had to pass thru Canada, so does that make the water more, or less, Socialist?

On a more serious note, as noted above a few times, I don't mind this situation. Washington State is Washington State. I have family in Stevens County, and have re-distributed a few turkey dinners from there back to King County

We're all one state, and we all pay in, and we all get back. If Stevens County doesn't have the revenue for its services, then the counties that have the revenue should help out...it's literally how it works.

I think Washington State is better for having Stevens County just as it is, I'd rather it be more wild and less developed, and if that means less tax revenue, then that means less tax revenue. It's still worth it.

(though Stevens County does continually vote down any increases in their property taxes, knowing they can rely on King County to make up the difference for them)

I just get tired of the handwringing and butthurting from those that have no problem taking the money, but still complain about the tyranny of those who are providing it.

That hypocrisy is astounding.

Fish on...
