"Community member" is the new term. Several officers say the term is offensive, explaining their work with violent suspects.
Last fall The Dept of Corrections stopped calling inmates offenders - instead use the term "student"

Something resembling reality or common sense? Good luck with that?...
This is a place where the cost of living is rising faster than the the property values because burger flippers and people who serve coffee for a living; both of which who aren't even qualified to be picking fuzz balls off of old sweaters, get paid a minimum $15 an hour.

I never understood the rationale for raising minimum wage for jobs that are disappearing. I think every Mickey D's has one of these in them now.

No different than San Francisco. Cost of living was sky high for years... even decades, before council upped wages over the Federal minimum there also.

Seattle is a "Vancouver Lite," for exactly the same reason. Itisn'tbecause of the wages. It is due to Seattle being a fairly attractive city to move to for certain demographics. Asians especially come to mind.

Seattle has a white majority.

Yes property values play a part but they only affect the cost of living in so far as the market will bare. You can't charge more for a house or property than it is worth relative to it's market. It's market price is tied directly to it's location.
The same is not true with wages. If you think that rising wages for goods and services, that are mandated by the government, do not affect the cost of living, then you are a fool. Ridiculously high wages are passed directly on to the consumer all across the board.
Ask yourself why a small cup of coffee in some neighborhoods in Seattle costs $6 and then look at the nose ring wearing, horn rimmed, ear gauged, dipshit, psychology major, behind counter, pretending to be a fucking nuclear chemist when all they are really doing is asking you how much non fat milk you want in your fucking latte.....It's all a sham orchestrated by prog economic policies that cater to societies lowest common denominator which just so happens to be the prog/liberal voter base.

I just want to point out that increases in wage, specifically minimum wage, tends to follow inflation.Quote from: "RW"
An excessively high minimum wage will obviously place inflationary pressure on the economy. But increasing it to keep pace with inflation will have only a minimal effect.

Well it's a good thing that most minimum wage earners don't have mortgages, eh?

Minimum wage increases almost always follow inflation. Like minimum wage is increased to keep up with inflation, not the other way around.Quote from: "RW"
That is true. Raising the minimum wage to an excessively high rate would exert inflationary pressure on the economy, but increasing it to keep pace with inflation would only have a minimal effect.
