I've never understood Californian as being a Mexican or Hispanic dog whistle. I've usually assumed that it meant people from not oregon/Washington that have come to the area with assets that they use to purchase property which has priced people that have lived in that area longer out of the market. As for the dumb urban legends of bussing homeless people around, I think all urban places with homeless issues have that rumor.

ElCondemn posted:Nazi's in Seattle, apparently a bunch of them are tech workers, who would've guessed 20-something shut-ins would be a bunch of racists? CNBC says there are 250K tech workers in Washington, and 90% in king county (seattle) and with a metro population of 3.8million that means that 6% of the population are tech workers. So in short I'm not surprised, but there is likely no correlation between tech and nazis.

silicone thrills posted:That 250k number seems low? Maybe programmers only? Just thinking about the spread between amazon, microsoft, google, facebook, and then the smattering of smaller companies like F5 and companies like Nordstrom that have 1200+ in the IT org. I got it from a march 2017 CNBC article which refers to Washington Technology Industry Association. My dumbass point is that tech is a largish subset of those employed in the Seattle area and so their proportionally large participation in a dumbass movement should be expected. Because of that, the article is just a dog whistle against tech bros. Not saying tech bros aren't awful, but you can't connect the dots between the Nazi movement and tech workers.

And then imagine that a developer wanted to build a six-story building (part of which would be used to house poor people) that would block those aforementioned "insane views." Can you imagine what kind of tyrannical city council would let a developer get away with that?! Real estate speculator hosed by other real estate speculators, in my neighborhood? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

I don't have the best grasp on where they want to divide the state but I looked at state tax distributions by county for 2017. I divided the state on the skamania=west, klickitat=east line and west had 28.4M expenses against 3.8M east.

silicone thrills posted:It's not about expenses, its about revenue. King County only gets back like 50 cents of every dollar we send to the state for taxes. But those counties out in the east are spending between 2-3$ for every dollar they send to the state. Oh I believe it. Sorry, I should have done more work on tax revenues but I have a bunch of work meetings, but I'm always interesting in the internal math on secessionist wierdos.
