skeeter..
i think my heart just stopped ;-)
We agree with the concept of being willing to pay the price to live where we do…

choices folks.. we all have choices.
you don’t get to have your cake and eat it too

Well I’m not saying it’s right. Or fair. But I don’t mind the extra property taxes because my family is getting the bargain of a lifetime. Mrs. and I are in our prime earning years. We’re making good money and paying zero state income tax. The extra $1,000 or so in property taxes is nothing compared to what we’d be paying in state income tax if we were in Oregon or California or one of the other 43 states with an income tax.

Now… if we moved to Burien or Tukwila we’d escape both the income tax and the high(ish) Seattle property taxes. But I can’t take the commute. So we’ll stay put in West Seattle.

“PS…I’m a 55 yr old man and fireworks have been going off as far back as I can remember, do I like them, no, do they keep me awake at night, yes sometimes but they’ll probably keep going off until the day I leave this earth”

Seems like a very defeated attitude. Why? I don’t understand that. Public nuisances that a lot of people vocally dislike and want to end can be stopped. If 1 house on a block throws loud ragers every night, the police can step in with fines to address the problem. The same can be done with fireworks.

“so I can either ignore them or let my inner sole dwell on them and turn into a grumpy old man, what do you think?”

There’s a third option, work to get real enforcement of the issue. SPD could make a serious dent in their operating budget for the year in just two nights by ticketing anyone they see lighting anything bigger than sparklers. Set off a role of black-cats? That’s $5K. Set off mortar shells? That’s $5K for each round.

Taking a no-holds-barred approach for just one year would drive so much news everyone would know about it and maybe, just maybe, they’d drive or catch a bus south for the the 1-3 miles to WC/Burien to set them off instead. You know, where it’s actually legal? Here in my neighborhood during New Year’s the idiots across the street were setting off larger rockets (not penny-bottle rockets but not mortars) AT cars. SPD didn’t do anything about it even though I said I had video of them doing it repeatedly. That’s offensive. It shouldn’t take a serious accident before this changes but it’s only a matter of time before one of these tools sets a forest fire, or causes a car accident, or physically injures someone. Why is that an acceptable risk?

“My worry is that once an income tax is started it will go up, up, up, and municipalities and state agencies will still charge or pass new taxes further burdening everyone.”

This is exactly why we will never improve our tax system. Even when voters have a chance to move toward a fairer, more progressive tax system the defeatist attitude prevails. Just a couple of years ago there was an initiative that would have levied a small income tax on the most wealthy corporations and individuals in the state (I don’t remember the initiative number, you could look it up). It would have been enough to completely cover the costs of a state sponsored healthcare program and only affect a tiny portion of the populace. And it was something we all got to vote on, not something cooked up by legislators. Result? Not passed. Because “once they start an income tax…”

So, always a good topic for complaining, but no stomach, even among voters much less legislators, to do even the slightest thing to alter one of the most unfair and regressive tax systems among the 50 states.

At some point as I was walking along Alki yesterday, the stone fell out of my ring. It’s small (maybe 3mm long), rectangular cut, and clear light green. It’s not valuable, just an inexpensive peridot, but has symbolic value and I’d love to get it back. I know the chances of someone spotting a stone that tiny are pretty small, but I’m hoping folks can keep a lookout for it. Thanks much.

dhg
i would prefer to think that democrats are held accountable
or as in Franken’s case.. hold themselves accountable
unfortunately that isn’t always the case ….

if we accept a lack of ethics as a barometer of success we have lost.

[JoB]

will keep a lookout in my westwood neighborhood for you. houses in that price range are possible here,, or at least they were last time i comparison shopped my rent

I spent a lot of time looking for a new place after over 15 yrs in WS and from my experience you won’t find much at that price there. If you’re open to other areas, you’ll get a much nice home with less traffic problems in Burien. For many people, Burien is just 1st Ave south and unappealing businesses along that road. There are a lot of nice residential areas and a lot calmer than what WS has become.

dobro: Democrats are too nice, much too nice. Biggest problem with Democrats. We had an effective national voice in Al Franken but a woman’s story of how he kissed her in a play when he was 20-something is enough for him to step down. Republicans want power and won’t let ethics get in the way. Dems fall short of perfection and quit.

So J242 did I say I was letting off fireworks as you commented, no I did not “The city already puts on a hell of a lot better fireworks show than you or any dozen people could hope to so why not appreciate it and let the rest of us get some sleep?!!?”
PS…I’m a 55 yr old man and fireworks have been going off as far back as I can remember, do I like them, no, do they keep me awake at night, yes sometimes but they’ll probably keep going off until the day I leave this earth so I can either ignore them or let my inner sole dwell on them and turn into a grumpy old man, what do you think?

Yes. I always wear a PDF and a whistle, sometimes an air horn.

More importantly, what prompted your rant? Are you sitting in your car in traffic adjacent to a body of water watching people have fun on SUPs and in kayaks?

There is no such thing as an ‘undergrown’ laurel! As a former landscape professional, I would recommend removal. Even with constant maintenance (shearing at least twice a year) the hedge will continue to get bigger and uglier each year. The interior of the hedge will not grow foliage, so the more you cut it back, the worse it looks. It is now listed as an invasive species.

As there is no way to harm this monster, go the cheapest route you can. Anyone with a ladder, a hedge trimmer, and an eye for a straight line can do it. Don’t waste your money.

Heartless, thanks for the input. Regarding Kshama Sawant. Republicans are not the issue and her saying that was only for her base and like minded people. The real concern is for Democrats. Sawant Activists are targeting non allied district leaders. Her socialist party has the ability to put in candidates that have her philosophy in mind. Certain people will follow that movement and the Bernie socialist view is certainly appealing to many of our younger voters.

For my money which she wants more of, she is not a nice person at all. She promotes a national agenda that truly is anti police, and anti business among other items. I am starting to see KILL BEZOS graffiti in many places. Her rhetoric is chilling and is spreading.

I can work with Democrats and appreciate some of the issues fiscally and socially facing our city. Hers is a controlling movement with no remorse and no quarter. Because of her and some others in the council we are losing experienced members of our police force, and now having to call out extra units for safety in numbers of the fire department for emergencies, propping up street people who are damaging property and lives taking services from the truly needy and homeless. Sowing discontent among the younger generation. Excuse the sentence structure please. Sort of a stream of conscious typing.

I fear that the wolf in sheep’s clothing is ready to pounce and there are some Democrats who are just too nice to fight on her level. I am warning you now. You guys had better get ready because there is a gap in strong leadership in that council. Passive Aggressive Seattle loses to Trotskyite based Social Activism and Revolution.

[HMC Rich]

TSurly, I appreciate your answer. My worry is that once an income tax is started it will go up, up, up, and municipalities and state agencies will still charge or pass new taxes further burdening everyone. With the political makeup of Olympia I sincerely doubt there will ever be a state income tax option. Democrats control the house and senate by the slimmest of margins and Inslee can’t do anything although I bet he wishes he could.

We all know we have to pay taxes. It is our duty as citizens.
Personally I want to throw out the federal tax system and simplify it. Exemptions are great for many people but many people do not take full advantage of it. I don’t see a change in the federal tax policy other than going up and down and special interests trying to get even more exemptions. Locally the current crop of City Council members are too tax happy.

[TSurly]

“TSurly, please enlighten me on why the state needs an income tax which is not an option for the state and municipalities.”

States without income taxes rely more heavily on sales, excise and property taxes, which fall disproportionately on moderate and low income families. Basing budgets on the backs of families who lack a stable financial footing is unsustainable in the long run, and it runs the risk of dampening consumer spending that fuels so much of our nation’s economy.

“Or do you subscribe to the Kshama Sawant view and just would never be a friend of a Republican? (Her words, not mine).”

No, my core group of oldest friends (guys I grew up with in a very conservation area of VA) are Republicans. We have heated debates, but in the end there is resolution, mainly on the fact that we agree as to how much of a disaster Trump is. The exception is one guy is this group, who I would describe as the poster child of Trump’s base. An uneducated (failed out of college), misogynistic (Jordan Peterson cultist who loves to refer to women by all kinds of nasty names), racist (openly refers to all people of color by the N word), who blames his lack of success on “Obama Policies”, minorities, and women.

Looking for recommendations, preferably landscape work professionals, who have the experience and tools for trimming/topping overgrown laurels. Thanks!

I grew up in a place where fireworks were rare and were a treat when they happened. I remember the anticipation before a fireworks show where we were eagerly awaiting dark skies and the adults were carefully inspecting the ignition area and making sure everything was safe. I remember the shows were special and we reacted to the colors with oohs and ahhs.

I never imagined what happens here in Seattle these days, which has gotten absurdly out-of-hand. The rolling thunder of explosions yesterday started early and lasted very late into the night, making bedtime for my child impossible and we’re paying the price for it today. Our dog spent the night in the bathroom scared out of his mind. The heart shaking booms are ridiculous. The amount of explosions is crazy. I miss just having a good time and not spending the night worried about our dog and our sleep and our neighborhood safety.

All of you who talk about “it’s just for one night”, “it’s your responsibility to take care of your dog”, etc are so inconsiderate. Many, many, many people are asking for you to listen to your neighbors and take your absurdly rude behavior elsewhere. I want to be able to celebrate this holiday, and the New Year, and every Seahawks game without this unreasonable infringement on my right to live my life peacefully in this neighborhood. Please, just listen to your neighbors imploring for your attention and respect, we will return it in kind.
