But...…………………………...I was told the tax cut was gonna make wages skyrocket?

You mean, you give money to billionaires, and they don't pass it along to their workers? Who knew?

Economics is hard.

Are you New English or ********? Complete non sequitur. Scooby has a point where purchasing labor does fall on the supply and demand curve. That doesn't make it the problem of a nanny state government, unless you really can't handle the advanced responsibilities of freedom.

But you truly NEED the nanny state. Otherwise with true freedom one could shoot you in the back and freely take your things for themselves

I'm fairly certain nobody wants Flaggy's inflatable girlfriend, so he's got nothing to worry about. ;)

Mall in Seattle being radically redesigned.

tl;dr They’re removing a bunch of the shops and adding in residential and a hotel. I only post because my cousin, who lives in Seattle, was complaining about it on Facebook because “they’re keeping the parking garage! eyeroll” (and also because my parents lived in that area when they lived there). I don’t really get the complaint, Northgate is a huge transit hub with a large bus transit center and a soon to be open Light Rail stop, seems like a good use of the property.

Yeah I remember it having the monorail to the Space Needle, and being right near Pike's Place that's a pretty important connection between two important sights in the city. Aiming it at visitors makes more sense, I could envision locals avoiding it because it's already a tourist hub.

Northgate is up past UW, it’s got a lot of residential, obviously the mall, and a lot of transit links. It’s not a bad idea with the Light Rail coming online since a lot of commuters will be going through the area.

I saw an article that the new light rail cars may not fit on the existing trackage.
