Seattle's Mayor Bruce Harrell just dropped a budget that's more delusional than a Seattle Seahawks Super Bowl prediction. Despite facing a staggering $150 million deficit, he's proposing to spend hundreds of millions more on the same failed policies that turned downtown into a real-life thriller video. We're talking $350 million for "affordable" housing (that costs three-quarters of a million per unit), $225 million for homelessness programs that have increased street population by 23%, and now they need $10 million just to clean up graffiti and hire park rangers because lawlessness is so out of control that people are literally jumping stolen cars over drawbridges Dukes of Hazard style. Meanwhile, they're putting up chainlink fences around downtown alleys because that's totally solving the fentanyl zombie problem, right? Is anyone surprised that when you build a homeless industrial complex, more homeless people show up? What did they expect when there are zero consequences for crime and endless taxpayer-funded services? Don't forget to subscribe and hit that notification bell – someone needs to keep exposing this taxpayer-funded circus before your city becomes the next Seattle!
