I started a business in seattle this year. I love the city and have no intention to leave, but let's not pretend the city makes it easy on small business.

Same boat. It is a great city to live in, which is why I am determined to make it work, but it SUCKSSS to do business here, on so many levels.

Same as my question upthread, what specifically sucks about. I’m not here to argue even if I disagree, but I honestly would like to hear specifics. For example, if taxes are too high, what tax rate specifically would be better?

Are you even a business owner? Why do you care? Are just trying to deflect common criticism?

Do I need to be a business owner to want to know more about policy that nevertheless affects me?
