Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the unfairest of them all?

Famed is thy progressiveness, Seattle, but when it comes to taxes, it’s you.

A new study singles out our city as the most regressive in the country. Taxes here are exceptionally hard on the poor and uniquely light on the rich.

"When you look at Washington state, it’s the most regressive out of all the states, and when you look Seattle, it’s the most regressive out of all the largest cities in every state," said Matthew Caruchet, who wrote the report for the Economic Opportunity Institute.

(Regressive means that people with lower incomes pay higher tax rates than people with higher incomes.)
