The Freedom Foundation has filed lawsuit against the Washington State Capital Gains Tax the legislature enacted last May. We all know that a capital gains tax is only prelude to a general income tax on all citizens. All we citizens need is another tax... .
The state rulers attempted to dismiss the lawsuit based on the argument that our defendants would not know for a fact if they would have to pay the tax, since the new law doesn't go into effect till 2023 (the " citizens are too dumb" argument).
The Judge didn't agree with the state and supported the Freedom Foundation's argument that we the people have standing (a technical term meaning "a right to make legal claims").
The case will proceed!
In addition to this the judge decided not to move case to Thurston County and it will be heard in Douglas County, a county that will give us citizens a better chance of winning.
Save our state from income tax!

Effing the ineffable - Washington State elections sometimes have been rigged.
“It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.”
