As the chart shows the problem is not as much about the amount the rich pay, but instead it is how much the poor pay. At 17.3% of income it is way ahead of second highest FL at 13.5% and out of whack with the US median of about 10%. The initiative would not have done a lot to address this unless WA has a substantial number of property owners among the poor paying at a high property tax rate.
