    Fuck Tim Hymen and his stolen office chair. Seriously. The net increase in cost to transit projects already in the pipeline will be in the hundreds of millions of dollars (or more) and will come directly out of our pockets. Thanks Tim you embezzling fraud. The impact from transit cuts and deferred maintenance whether measured in increased cost over time or lost productivity will be massive. Construction jobs? Affordable housing? Air quality? Small business opportunity in urban villages? ....all negatively impacted. Brilliant. Just fucking brilliant.

    Aren't tabs used on cars?

    Not busses

    The state has to extort money out west for transit because no one uses it

    Unless they have to

    It’s a local tax. People not in the transit region don’t pay it.

    At the end of the day, I drive and old car with low fees. Only my wife gets to have new things so she has to deal with it.

    Seattle is very racist. And very passive aggressive about it

    I voted for a red headed Irish lass (hi @PurpleThrobber ) over the Messican lady.
