San Fran, LA, Seattle: West Coast Cities Become Hellholes
It's hard to imagine after spending the first 55 years of life in Beautiful Seattle that it has become this hellhole, but that is why we left. We sold all of our properties and went to a more favorable location. Looking back it was exactly the right thing to do.
My comment ends here.

In the past two weeks, Seattle Is Dying has garnered nearly 2 million views on YouTube. The report has clearly resonated with anxious, fearful, and increasingly angry Seattle residents. Exhausted by a decade of rising disorder and property crime—now two-and-a-half times higher than Los Angeles’s and four times higher than New York City’s.
After dictating homelessness policy for a generation, the activist class is losing the narrative.
Here is the entire story by Michael Snyder: https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-04-17/san-fran...
"it is pretty easy to see where Seattle continues to go wrong. A heavy tax burden, regulations that push out businesses, and a power-hungry group of totalitarian sociopaths have been slowly eroding the city. The decay of Western civilization can be seen up and down the entirety of the West coast. Some say it’s by design, others disagree. But the commonality is that all of the cities are being pushed into poverty by illusions and lies of socialists. Calling Seattle anything other than a leftist’s paradise would be inaccurate. The city has all of the laws the socialists want, yet it’s killing itself because of it."
