0:00:30.160 --> 0:00:33.919
<v Speaker 1>Like most other Democrat runs cities, Seattle has housing problems.

0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:36.239
<v Speaker 1>Prices are out of reach for both renters and buyers,

0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:40.440
<v Speaker 1>and there is a big homeless problem there everywhere. So

0:00:40.520 --> 0:00:42.879
<v Speaker 1>Seattle City councils come up with an idea. They are

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:46.800
<v Speaker 1>proposing a new tax. The tax would only affect the

0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:50.159
<v Speaker 1>largest businesses in the city, Supposedly on top of what

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:53.720
<v Speaker 1>they're already paying. These companies would be taxed another five

0:00:53.800 --> 0:00:57.600
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars per employee. Revenue would be used to fix

0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:01.520
<v Speaker 1>the housing crisis. Supposedly, except it won't because they can't.

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:05.479
<v Speaker 1>Seattle's existence demonstrates they can't and don't know what they're doing. Now.

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:10.399
<v Speaker 1>The plan was moving full steam ahead until Amazon announced

0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>it is immediately stopping construction on the new facility they're

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:17.960
<v Speaker 1>building downtown, which put seven thousand new jobs at risk.

0:01:18.600 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Amazon's decision caused panic to erupt in Seattle's liberal corridors

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:26.040
<v Speaker 1>of power. The mayor is alarmed. She says that she's

0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 1>talking to business and labor leaders, anybody she has to

0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:33.760
<v Speaker 1>in order to find common ground. But remember, Seattle just

0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:36.120
<v Speaker 1>saw a bunch of jobs disappear when they imposed the

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:39.080
<v Speaker 1>so called living wage on businesses. It closed a bunch

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:42.399
<v Speaker 1>of restaurants, and here they are again. You see, liberals

0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:45.199
<v Speaker 1>never learned there is no common ground to be found

0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 1>with these people. Jeff Bezos, hold your ground, buddy,
