Legally this is quite fascinating. The state constitution is quite strange wrt. taxes: https://law.justia.com/constitution/washington/constitution-... There is a school of thought that the powers should be enumerated in the constitution. But this is not in favor. Instead this argues that Culliton the ruling that classified income as property was incorrect. And once that door is opened saying that the claims within the existing constitution only apply to property and finally that there is a strong presumption of constitutionality. Seems like a gauntlet. But it seems clear that given the composition of the supreme court that they will pass the gauntlet. A constitution is but paper. It does not hold back the motivated. |
