Reply to comment by nanobitegamer in Washington Supreme Court upholds new capital gains tax by Bozzooo
The state constitution prohibits an income tax, the supreme court was deciding if taxes on capital gains (like selling stock) count as income tax

Nope! Since this is a question about the state constitution, the state supreme court had the final say. Costello v. Carter confirmed that explicitly last year when the US Supreme Court told Republicans they couldn't appeal the PA Supreme Court's ruling on redistricting since it relied on state law

All states have a de facto official language that government business is conducted in and laws are written in, I believe.

The government needs to conduct itself in a language and the laws written by them generally need to have a set language to avoid discrepancies between translations.

There isn’t a federally established national language; why would there be one established by individual states?

Reply to Coffee roasters with 5 pound bags by krackenmyacken
I really don’t think you’ll find anything in your price point aside from Costco and the like. Relevant coffee is the one I keep coming back to. 5lb bags are $105-120. Highly recommended.
I also like stumptown, Bardorf and Bronson, Coava, and Nossa Familia. Storyville is good, but I’m pretty sure doesn’t have 5 lb bags.
Oh! Maybe try Lighthouse Roasters? They’re probably closer to your price point than my other suggestions.

This is where the United States is ahead of Canada. Quebec gets away with stuff that would never be allowed in the US due to the First Amendment.

Canada has two official languages.
Last I checked Canada wasn’t fascist.

Because people in Washington don't talk to each other so we don't bother /s

Make it Chinuk Wawa. A multicultural language with heritage right here in the PNW/Washington

It’s over men, Wormer dropped the big one.
The Supreme Court doesn’t have any jurisdiction over this case.

Batdorf & Bronson from Olympia. Their Whirling Dervish is my favorite. They ship (even to olympia addresses) Orders over $60 are free shipping.

Dillanos coffee roasters and lamppost coffee roasters both sell 5lb bags, but not around the price you're looking for. That might be difficult finding quality coffee for $60.

Official languages are kinda pointless unless you are trying to protect a dying language. While most Americans can barely speak English properly, it is far from a dying language

Our pilot pointed it out to us on our flight home last night. So glad I had a window seat on the right side. So beautiful.

It’s a tax on rich people that will raise $500M a year to help fund schools and social programs for poor people.
