Seattle passes campaign finance initiative

Shirley this will stop politicians from whoring themselves out to the highest bidder
 
Does everybody who runs get taxpayer money?... or... just the Good candidates?

if everybody gets money... is it allocated evenly?... or... do the best candidates get the most?
 
Each voter gets $100 worth of coupons to hand out to candidates as they see fit. Mine are for sale to the highest bidder.
 
Yep ^
All this will do is help activist candidates. Sawant (how on earth she got re-elected I have no idea) is gonna have friends soon

She gets re-elected because she represents a bunch of people that feel that everything should be given to them ... it's not really that hard to see.

I could offer up a massive TL, DR rant on the election results last night.
 
Sewerant is a leading lieutenant of the growing Free Shit Army. She will grow in popularity as long as others have shit she convinces her followers they deserve to have instead, for free.

When I see people with openly blind hate like that as a politician, they should immediately be handed a gas can, match, and escorted to the Aurora Bridge.

I have a little bit of experience in this field but mostly it's a self-proclaimed expert behind a keyboard thing.

The people who draft these initiatives are purposefully making it as confusing and opaque as possible. What might sound good on the surface or at first glance is the exact opposite often times. Even if you trace the money to the source (which about 1 in 100 people would actually do), it might be dark money or at best it's some think tank cloaked behind a folksy sounding name.
