Socialist Mayor Who Lived Off Parents at 43 Gets $9B Budget DISASTER

from News For Reasonable People · host Sean Reynolds

Seattle's socialist mayor-elect calls for a Starbucks boycott while baristas strike nationwide - and yes, she's the same 43-year-old who can't pay her own bills without mommy and daddy's help. We're watching a city with a $9 billion budget hand the keys to someone who hasn't figured out step one of adulting, all while progressive policies have made Seattle so expensive that you need $135,000 just to survive as a single person. The irony? They're boycotting one of their own major employers in a city already drowning in budget deficits. What could go wrong? Meanwhile, Starbucks has already closed 11 stores due to these exact policies, turning $25/hour jobs into $0/hour unemployment. But hey, socialism will work this time, right? Every minute, one taxpayer flees California for Texas - seeing a pattern yet? Are we really going to let unqualified ideologues destroy entire cities while preaching about worker rights? What do you think happens when virtue signaling meets economic reality?
