(Nickeled and) Dimed to Death

Seattle moonbats want to impose a ten-cent tax on espresso-type beverages, a sort of luxury tax. For the childrenTM, of course.
Serenity is clearly not happy about it…
I mean, if I can afford a $3 drink, then I guess it must be my duty to pay for their children’s education….after all, I’ve got all this money just lying around and no place to spend it.
… and she isn’t even going to be there long enough to pay the tax.
I don’t drink espresso or any coffee drink for that matter so it would not have affected me anyway.
However, it still doesn’t dim the fact that this “luxury tax” is clearly ridiculous. Kalifornia takes a lot of attention with their idiocy while Seattle flies under the radar. Seattle is Kalifornia Lite. Give them time…they’ll be just as bad soon enough.
No wonder native Washingtonians hate all the Cali immigrants. They’re the ones trying to turn Seattle into CA-lite.
