Re: “Meet the financier behind 6 initiatives” [Jan. 28, A1]:
The profile of Brian Heywood and his initiatives provides yet one more to the a whole bunch of causes for a state revenue tax. It could serve to discourage the billionaire hedge funders from shifting to Washington and, if not, they’ll pay one thing nearer to their justifiable share.
And that hypothetical commuter from Everett to Bellevue that Heywood cites having to pay increased gasoline costs because of the Local weather Dedication Act can take Sound Transit bus route 532. How does would-be Gov. Heywood really feel about public transportation?
