Borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring.State seals are boring. Which is why retired military officer Jim Vaughn has a fantastic idea for sprucing up Washington’s.Instead of a silly old drawing of George Washington, Vaughn has suggested the seal depict a tapeworm dressed in a three-piece suit attached to the taxpayer’s rectum with the words “committed to sucking the life blood out of each and every tax payer” surrounding the picture. See? Anything but dull.Of course, Vaughn isn’t just interested in aesthetics. He’s trying to make a point. As he told KOMO, Washington has one of the country’s most regressive tax systems because of “the extraordinary degree to which they have shifted the cost of funding public investments to their very poorest residents.”Vaughn’s suggestion came in the form of an affidavit to the Secretary of State’s Office. Which means it’s largely a stunt for publicity’s sake. And since Vaughn had the creativity to stick a tapeworm to our collective rectum, we’re happy to oblige.
