Traffic at 10:30am ... Bellevue... Traffic at 10:30am ... Bellevue / Redmond i520 Near Microsoft Exit.
Seattle / Bellevue areas are growing so rapidly that the infrastructures including highways and roads are not being able to handle the increase traffic. In addition, the State, counties and cities are trying very hard to move people from driving their cars to public transportation such as buses and light rail lines.

To accomplish this, many new taxes have been introduced and making Washington State and cities like Seattle very unfriendly to businesses regardless of the size. This is very unfortunate. Many businesses have relocated their headquarters to other states and small businesses are moving out of Seattle.

Also the city of Seattle adopted $15/hour minimum wages ... That is $1.00/hour more than San Francisco. It just made it more difficult for people to get minimum wage jobs in Seattle. That caused more and more homeless people in Seattle. It is a very negative spiral we put ourselves in.
