California Government Pension Systems “Endangered” by Stephen Frank

By Stephen Frank on Feb 16, 2015 08:48 pm
CalPERS claims it is doing well, while increasing mandated contributions by 50%. The same with CalSTRS. CalPERS has decided instead of getting the best investments possible they determined to put large sums of money into “green’ investments—few of which make real money.

Should Cities Pay for Sports Facilities? For Billionaires Play Toys?

By Stephen Frank on Feb 16, 2015 08:41 pm
In 2001 a study was completed by the Federal Reserve—not a private organization, not a special interest, not the unions or politicians.

Redflex Red Lights Camera’s Found Uncalibrated—Yet Still gave Out Tickets

By Stephen Frank on Feb 16, 2015 08:37 pm
The fraud of red light camera’s continues. In Chicago they are charged with bribing local officials (of course that is how business is done in Chicago—at least they are open about it). In Europe the folks there do not wait for the courts or the corrupt politicians—they are burning down the camera’s in every nation […]

O.C. Latino Loses Election: Now Latinos Would Laws Changed to GUARANTEE They Win

By Stephen Frank on Feb 16, 2015 08:21 pm
Like a bunch of little children, some radicals in the Orange County Latino community are trying to imitate Barack Obama. If you lose an election, declare victory and change the laws so in the future no one else can run—kind of like Cuba. Actually, they want racist elections, where Latinos are only allowed to vote […]

Does California Need More National Monuments?

By Stephen Frank on Feb 16, 2015 08:16 pm
 Is it the role of the Federal government to take away land owned by the people of Los Angeles County and State of California, 300,000 acres, so the President can physically control move land. He will decide who can use this land and how. Not the people of California and the County that created the […]

Union workers call out others for crossing picket line in rare lack of solidarity

By Stephen Frank on Feb 16, 2015 08:04 pm
This is a shock. Union workers willing to work when the bosses tell them not to, because other unions are on strike. Guess nobody works for the company any more, if you pay a bribe the union tells you when and if you work. Is San Fran changing? Is it becoming an adult, where people […]
