Journalist/musician Mark Taylor-Canfield talks about life in Seattle where the hour minimum wage, marriage equality, immigration rights & legal marijuana make it one of the most progressive cities in the USA. Only a few hours south of Vancouver, Canada, Seattle has become a tech/software culture with European style politics, including local support for Democratic Socialists including Seattle city council member Kshama Sawant. MTC explores some of the nuances of the Emerald City currently monolpolized by Amazon, and where it’s a toss up over whether the real billionaire Wizard is actually Bill Gates, Paul Allen or Jeff Bezos.
The video also features MTC’s music.
Mark Taylor-Canfield has written for Huffington Post and is a nationally recognized journalist. He’s also a gifted Seattle musician and producer.
