Lars Larson: WA revives the marriage penalty

The Northwest Nonsense

Marriage means a lot to many of us, especially Christians and conservatives.

It forms the bedrock for children and families and life.

For liberal democrats, not so much.

For them, apparently, marriage just offers a tool for politics and money.

How else do you explain why Democrats in Olympia just passed a massive new income tax with a gigantic penalty on married couples?

It’s not bad enough that the unnecessary tax supplies cash for a state government addicted to spending beyond OUR means.

Now, state lawmakers from the slavery party have included a penalty for being married.

You see, the new tax applies only to millionaires.

If you make less than a million, you don’t pay.

If two workers each earn 750-thousand dollar paychecks, they’re exempt.

But if they’re married, their household income totals 500-thousand over the limit so they’d pay a 50-thousand dollar marriage penalty

Democrats in Olympia work overtime finding new ways to drive sensible people OUT of the state.

That’s the Rose City Rap. Join me at noon on KXL for 4 hours of Honestly provocative talk. I’m Lars Larson
