Summary
A Democratic city council member in Seattle, Rob Saka, has expressed concern about the business exodus in the city, despite previously welcoming the new socialist mayor, Katie Wilson. Wilson had laughed off the idea of billionaires and business leaders leaving the city, saying “like, bye.” However, with Starbucks recently announcing a major expansion in Nashville and cutting Seattle-based corporate jobs, Saka has admitted to being “gravely concerned” about the city’s business climate. The state’s new “millionaires tax” has also been criticized for driving businesses away.

Now, a Democratic city council member, Rob Saka, is expressing concern about the business exodus.
Starbucks has announced a major expansion in Nashville and cut Seattle-based corporate jobs.
The state’s new “millionaires tax” has been criticized for driving businesses away.
