Seattle Doom Loop Continues as it leads Nation in office Rent DECLINES

Seattle leads the nation in something again – and as usual, it's not something to celebrate. With 35% office vacancy rates and plummeting commercial rents, the Emerald City has officially become the poster child for how socialist policies destroy business districts. But wait, there's more! Meet Sean Scott, Washington's mini Let's Go Brandon Johnson, who thinks workers can just collectively create the next Amazon while he pushes a statewide payroll tax that will send Microsoft and Meta packing faster than you can say "go woke, go broke." We've already seen this movie in Seattle – Amazon moved 10,000 jobs to Bellevue when they got hit with a city payroll tax, leaving the city $47 million short on revenue. Now these economic geniuses want to take that failed experiment statewide. What could go wrong? The wheels are coming off, and taxpayers are left holding the bag while businesses flee to states that actually understand basic economics. Is anyone surprised that a Democratic Socialist who's never run so much as a taco stand thinks he can manage a $9 billion budget? Will Washington become the next California exodus story?
