On a cold morning in 2011, Julia Biryukova pulled her car to the side of the road, claiming it ran out of gas. She says she left her 2-year-old son, Sky, asleep in the vehicle while she took her 4-year-old daughter to get help. When she returned, Sky was gone. What followed was a case that has continued to stun the local community and, really, the nation for nearly 15 years. 2-year-old Sky Metalwala was reported missing from Bellevue, Washington, on November 6, 2011. At that time, he was 2'10” tall and weighed approximately 30lbs. He is biracial with black hair and brown eyes. Anyone with information about Sky is asked to call the Bellevue Police Department at 425-577-5656. For more information about the show, visit⁠⁠ VoicesforJusticePodcast.com⁠⁠.

The JumpStart Payroll Tax was passed in Seattle on July 6, 2020 to “fund affordable housing and combat homelessness” by taxing corporations with payrolls over $8.5 million. It targeted companies like Amazon.So five years later, what happened?The tax brought in new money at first. It raised $231 million in 2021, $293 million in 2022, and $310 million in 2023. That was new additional tax money. Everything looked good at first. But with the new revenue, Seattle spent heavily on affordable housing projects, poured millions into climate programs and small business grants, and then started using large chunks of the tax to plug holes in the general fund when other revenues fell short. They burned through the money as fast as it came in, expanding spending instead of fixing the budget.But now Seattle is facing a $247 million budget shortfall over the next two years. As KIRO 7 reported: “This is catastrophic.”Why? Because companies responded by leaving. Amazon moved 25,000 jobs to Bellevue. Meta cut 3,600 jobs. Expedia cut 1,500. Other companies froze hiring or quietly moved out. Seattle taxed its economic engine, and the engine left.Instead of using the new tax to stabilize the budget, the city just spent more. Now that tax revenue is flattening, the spending binge is catching up with them.If this continues, the payroll tax could shrink enough to flip into a net loss within two to five years.But what about the main goal — reducing homelessness? In 2019, Seattle and King County counted 11,199 people experiencing homelessness. By 2024, that number had jumped to 16,868. That is a 51 percent increase since before the tax passed.So to sum it up — Seattle raised taxes, spent every dollar of new revenue, drove out jobs, blew up its budget, and made homelessness worse.So what can we/I learn from this? Raising tax rates does not guarantee more revenue or better results. This is one of the biggest misconceptions that I had for my entire life. In many cases raising taxes actually drives away jobs and weakens the economy and ultimately reduces the tax revenue in the long run. This is very counterintuitive but Seattle just proved it. Again.

Before founding The Perq, Dr. Sung practiced at The Polyclinic in Downtown Seattle and the Overlake Clinic in Bellevue, Washington.She's also a fellow graduate of the 2024-2025 cohort of LearnSkin's Integrative Dermatology Certificate Program (IDCP), which is how I met her and many other remarkable past and future guests...

Spring Lake Church – BellevueSermon: Preparing for the JourneyTeacher: Pastor Jeff LedererPassages: 1 Kings 19, 2 Corinthians 12:7-10In this message, Pastor Jeff Lederer takes us through 1 Kings 19 and 2 Corinthians 12:7–10 to explore how God meets us in moments of exhaustion, weakness, and silence. We see Elijah, worn out and afraid, encounter God's care and direction in the wilderness, and Paul, grappling with a thorn in the flesh, finding strength through God's sufficient grace. The journey of faith often begins when we come to the end of ourselves. Key themes include knowing where you are, waiting on the Lord, caring for your embodied soul, and embracing God's greater purposes.Wherever you are on your journey, may this message remind you that God is present and faithful, even in the quiet.Church website: https://www.springlakechurch.orgGive online: https://slcgroups.churchcenter.com/givingNeed prayer? https://slcgroups.churchcenter.com/people/forms/9104

In the fall of 1940, an employ of the Consolidated Edison Company in Manhattan discovered a bomb in the company's main offices, along with a note that read “Con Edison crooks – this is for you.” The bomb was discovered before it detonated and no one was harmed, but a year later the company received a second bomb, followed by a note to NYPD in which the bomber announced he would make no bombs for the duration of WWII, but would begin again as the war ended.As promised, a new series of bombings began across New York in the winter of 1951, beginning with an explosion at Grand Central Station. In the five years that followed, “The Mad Bomber,” as he would come to be known, would place explosives at some of New York's most iconic locations including Radio City Music Hall, Penn Station, and the New York Public Library. The bombs were often followed by cryptic letters sent to the press, usually referencing the Consolidated Edison Company.Th Mad Bomber's reign of terror finally came to an end with his capture in 1957, and neither the suspect nor his motives made much sense to the New Yorkers who'd lived in fear for five years.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1955.
