The magical BHO has the devotion of a few idiots out here who hold positions of 
power in the Soviet Socialist Republic of Seattle.  The solution to their many 
eco problems is to hike the taxes upon the population until we cease consuming. 
 Fuel taxes were just hiked $0.18/gallon.  Our current tax burden is the 3rd 
highest in the nation for fuel.   The state charges, IIRC, $6/gal for spiritous 
liquor (20% sales $3.77/lt).  $30 on a carton of smokes.   Soda syrup is taxed 
$1/gallon to screw over soda fountains.  Each fireplace in your home is $30, 
unless you put in NG.  That has some steep rate per therm.  We even tax THC at 
38%.  General Sales taxes come to 9-10% on non food items.  

It does not pay to be a voting tax payer here.  Better to be some homeless 
schlub who gets all manner of "free" services and lives better than the working 
poor
