The city backed down. I think the amount of the head count tax was $250 per employee per year. Given the fact that Washington state doesnтАЩt have an income tax, this seemed very reasonable to me. I just canтАЩt understand why people like Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and now even Warren Buffett, who recently said he doesnтАЩt endorse candidates, seem so hell-bent on not paying taxes. How much money does one person need anyway?

Well, if Kamala loses, even Musk might have second thoughts about staying on this planet when he realizes what his "donations" have bought, and in light of his recent Booster Recovery success. And you know a flight to Mars will not be cheap for the others (he, of course, flies for free; he owns the forking company).
