There's something coming - The governor is involved

[724wd]

A friend of ours works directly with Inslee.  She mentioned tonight over dinner that she wanted to ask me about a new initiative coming.  I tried to pry more out of her, but she said she'd ask me soon.  Whatever it is, you can be sure it's not good.  I'll keep you updated as I learn more.

Oh let's see, ban all non Eco friendly cars, tax all non Eco cars by the miles driven, since guns are protected by the 2nd ban ammo that can be used in all semiautomatic guns, bring 10,000 Syrian refugees to our state and give them free homes plus free collage for them and their kids, etc etc .

I know high school kids who could govern better than that idiot!

There are supposed to be two initiatives concerning CO2 emissions for 2016. 

[Dan-o]

OK, I'll play.

My guess:   A driving tax, where you pay by the mile.   In addition to all of the existing gas taxes, because the government just doesn't have enough money.

Hopefully both of them involve him keeping his co2 emmisions at zero until his term is over.

A Diesel Jetta gets better mileage than a Prius. True story.. Lets tax the s...t out of battery disposal? Hugely toxic. Do people think they have "zero footprint" lets go after the Libs. For a change!
Ok. Ban me I can take it.

Oh forgot to mention take in refugee wolves from Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming as political refugees because their homeland states are oppressive.

According to the "studies" if you drive a truck/SUV 1000 miles a month and get 15 mpg you'll be pocketing almost $8 a month with the mileage tax vs the gas tax.  If you get 18-20 (don't recall exact number) you'll break even.  They're leaning towards three methods for tracking.  1) Self reporting your mileage. 2) some sort of tracking device 3) paying a flat rate.

If you're interested look up the WA  Transportation Commission, they have the info there. ( would post the link but not sure how with the wife's kindle)

Probably a ban on all lead ammunition.

Tracking device in my vehicle? Absolutely NO WAY!

Happy Easter notice

Semi auto rifle ban, 10 round magazine capacity limit, anything that holds more is band, guns & ammo tax,  gun registration,
more gas tax, state wage tax,  more refugees, price hike on auto registration.

I wish he would band idiots, starting with himself.

[Smoke]

more like a ban on all ammo... that burning powder pollutes the atmosphere and causes global warming...
