Just remember that
when you like government to increase business taxes

Remember how dishonest your Senators are when they say:
We give you a tax break, we just tax businesses more!

Yes, it matters when a business has to sprinkle a freezer for fire protection ? For Frozen Water?

Yes, it matters when a business has to pay for the ame Permit from King County,
AND WA-State AND the Federal Government, for the SAME Store

Yes, it matters different inspectors and fire chiefs make up rules as they go along,
rather then sticking to the law. It costs real money!

Yes, it matters, when Business Taxes go up
= YOU PAY MORE !
