[Washington state] Governor Bob Ferguson warned Tuesday that the budget proposal he’ll release this month will rely solely on spending cuts and not higher taxes to overcome what he says is a multi-billion dollar shortfall.

“That’s the plan,” Ferguson told reporters at the state Capitol. “I don’t plan on balancing the budget with revenue.”

      Gotta take everything from the poor before the ultra rich should even consider chipping in a little bit, you know? They’re worth more after all, the poors aren’t even people.

      I’ve been super unimpressed with Ferguson, he’s ineffectual and ridiculously tone deaf from everything I’ve seen. Piece of shit corporate stooge.
