<description>What is it with western Washington cities and public records?  We live in a world in which e-mail can be sent  from Seattle to Moscow in a few seconds.  It&amp;#039;s called the internet.  Just put all public records online and be done with it.   </description>

<description>Up vote this if you are sick and tired of politicians in Olympia raising our taxes.         Cut spending and stop giving illegals everything for free and we&amp;#039;ll easily balance the budget without any new taxes. </description>

<description>When the next election comes up, let&amp;#039;s all vote to replace the entire Port of Seattle leadership with pro-stadium leaders.       This joke has gone on for too long now.    This isn&amp;#039;t Mayberry, it&amp;#039;s a large city and traffic is to be expected.  The fact that the POS is even mentioning this makes us look like small town hicks. </description>

<description>&lt;b&gt;20.5 percent sales tax and $3.77 per liter tax&lt;/b&gt;  So altogether, the tax is what?  Somewhere in the upper 20%&amp;#039;s   That&amp;#039;s extreme taxation even by Democrat standards.    Thank God my 20&amp;#039;s are long behind me. </description>

<title>KOMO - Seattle, WA : Police leaders blame \&#039;prevalence of guns\&#039; for recent Seattle violence | Local &amp; Regional | Seattle</title>

<description>&lt;b&gt;&amp;quot;I do think that we need more support for empowerment programs for young people. I think they need better choices. I think that those kinds of programs are underfunded, they&amp;#039;re low priority,&amp;quot; said Stephanie Tschida&lt;/b&gt;      Forget &amp;quot;empowerment programs&amp;quot;,  it&amp;#039;s already been tried in places like Chicago and Newark and failed miserably.      What we really need are some stable parents that know how to discipline their kids, enforce curfews and most importantly, show enough love so that these youngsters aren&amp;#039;t attracted to gang banging in the first place. </description>

<description>Strangely,  the Bainbridge Island newspaper is reporting the ferry continued to it&amp;#039;s destination and then she was airlifted to Seattle...     &lt;a href=&quot;http:\/\/www.insidebainbridge.com\/2012\/05\/27\/bainbridge-woman-jumps-off-ferry-into-puget-sound-last-night\/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.insidebainbridge.com/2012/05/27/bainbr...&lt;/a&gt;    Someone gave a reporter bad info. </description>

<link>http://www.komonews.com/news/national/Govt-Food-stamp-fraud-costing-taxpayers-millions-153634455.html?clmob=y#IDComment366468201</link>
<description>More than once, I&amp;#039;ve seen food stamp recipients using their cards to buy luxury items at the grocery store.  We need to start restricting the items that can be purchased.  Food stamps shouldn&amp;#039;t be fun.  They should be temporary, not a lifestyle.   </description>

<title>KOMO - Seattle, WA : Hidden camera investigation catches 520 bridge workers drinking on the job | Local &amp; Regional | Seat</title>

<description>And here I thought I was the only one.     Good2Gouge sent me a toll bill in the mail, with a &lt;b&gt;$5 fine&lt;/b&gt; for being late.   Problem was, I never got the first notice from them.  I thought about fighting it, but then thought the better of it.   The little guy always loses when challenging the man.  Especially when the man is Washington state government trying to suck every last nickel from our pockets.    </description>

<description>Great job Tracy Vedder and KOMO.  These types of hard hitting stories never seem to show up on the other 3 local news stations.   As a taxpayer and someone that has payed the obscene toll several times,  I want a refund for all the lost productivity during the 520 happy hour.     </description>
