Pretty sure this is about the millionaires tax in Washington State, the first income tax passed in the state ever. The big argument against it is that it'll set the precedence of an income tax being legal by the state constitution, and then they'll start lowering the minimum income to tax everyone. Oh no, a progressive tax system!

I live in a TX. I find it sad there are so many people who are closer to broke than they ever will be to being a millionaire
