16. Micro$oft is taking over Washington politics the way the Big Four once ran ours.

They may have D's after their names, but they are not our friends.

Susan Delbane used her Microsoft money to beat out Darcy Burner in a primary, and Darcy really would have represented We The People. While this district has a few family farms in it, it has lots of Microsoft and football/basketball millionaires but few low income voters, it really has more city populations than rural in it. While it has farms, they are not many, SO IMO this woman is either speaking for a few (maybe) hundred OR she is being bought (more likely).

I am so mad at her I could spit and let her know in no uncertain terms. While she does do some good work (mostly "politically correct&quot , it lets me know I was right in supporting Darcy instead of her well gilded ass!

The head of the budget committee in their legislature is a former MSFT exec. Try to contain your shock when I tell you he got a bill through to slash WA's royalty tax by two-thirds.
