Katie Wilson - a Democratic Socialist who's never held a job for more than a year or run a business - is leading in the polls to manage a $9 billion city budget. What could go wrong?We break down how this political train wreck mirrors the same pattern destroying cities nationwide: progressive activists with zero real-world experience pushing out businesses with their "tax the rich" fantasies while creating government-run grocery stores and alternatives to police. Meanwhile, Amazon fled Seattle for Bellevue, and kids can't afford housing because of layers of bureaucratic nonsense.Is this Seattle's "find out" moment after decades of voting for feel-good policies that drive up costs and crime?
