Section 8 ....I say that as it's like Snohomish County and Everett are content with this as an economic development plan; it profits those that grease the wheels in this town, but then again I overheard a state legislator talking about the "status quo" as it related the landlords group. She had a big mouth and I had big ears. I heard what was said. Oh the tax credits must be nice. I haven't dove down to examine what they actually get out of the budget, but I can only imagine. And then there was the 30 million on a Boeing Job Fair that was completely wasted. Do you remember that one maybe 9 years ago? We saw the Hans Dunshee Doggie Massage license requirements...and we saw homelessness skyrocket. 
Am I saying it's one party or the other, absolutely in this state and this county. And they act like children while it's all about the children. Businesses are overtaxed, it hampers economic development, wages remain low with terrible benefits and it's the norm. 
More of same is unacceptable.
