California GOP Scammed in 2014: Fed’s Kashkari, in first speech, proposes Socialist Take Down of Banks and Wall Street

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:55 pm
In 2014 the Republican Party had a good candidate for Governor, Assemblyman Tim Donnelly. Tim had been a businessman, a legislator, someone involved in the policies of his community and the State. The Democrats did not want that, so they provided the GOP with a Left Wing Democrat, an Obama supporter AND donor, Neel Kashkari. […]

Runner: “I Take Public Transit … But I Hate It”

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:43 pm
It could take two hours or more going from one end to Los Angeles to your work on the other end. Most studies show it takes more time to use government transportation (it is NOT public transportation, since unions control whether the system works on any given day or not). Los Angeles in the past […]

Obama Lack of Vetting of Illegal Aliens: Murders in Massachusetts

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:39 pm
Obama Allowed illegal aliens to roam our nation, gave amnesty to 172,000 known criminal illegal aliens. Kate Steinle is a victim of Barack Obama. Marilyn Pharris is a victim of Obama. Now we have another victim of the Obama open borders policy. The murderers are illegal aliens IMPORTED by Barack Obama. “News reports indicate that […]

Study: California Drought Means Less Hydropower, More CO2 Pollution

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:36 pm
Thanks to Jerry Browns’ lack of a water policy, the price of energy is going up. Brown thinks giving water to fish and fining humans for using “too much” water is a policy. The people of California gave him $2 billion to build water storage facilities and he refuses to even discuss using the money […]

Dueling Proposals in San Diego Pit Transit Against Local Infrastructure

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:33 pm
Government is arrogant and corrupt. Unelected government is crooked and harms all of us. “The countywide half-cent tax increase would raise $18 billion over the next 40 years, and the regional planning agency SANDBAG – an agency with representatives from cities all over the county – is trying to figure out a package of projects […]

City of Richmond California: Top Rated SLUMLORD

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:30 pm
Did you think that government would make a good landlord? Do you believe government would not violate health and safety codes for the living spaces for the poor? Yet it took the city of Richmond two years to close down the facility housing the elderly and disabled. Instead of fixing the problems, government closed down […]

Muni may decriminalize citations for youth who don’t give seats to elderly

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:28 pm
It is the polite thing to do—a young person should give up their seat on a crowded bus or train to an elderly person or a person with disabilities. In a civilized society this is appropriate. Yet in crazy San Fran it is a CRIME not to give up your seat. This in a city […]

BART chief transportation officer’s $410,000 unused leave payout highest statewide

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:25 pm
Working for government pays off, big time. Working for an agency that operates ONLY when the unions allow it is even better. Just ask the folks in the Bay Area how secure they are in using government transportation, owned and controlled by the unions. Still, for the workers and the management, the pay is much […]

Could Marijuana Become California’s Next Big Ag Crop?

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:23 pm
In some areas of California, growing marijuana on an acre of land can net the farmer $19 million—that is NOT a typo. So it is a better money maker than Apple, TESLA or Bank of America ever thought they could be. Imagine the taxes government can collect! Think of the Mexican drug cartels as American […]

Unions Pester Community Choice Aggregation Energy Programs in California

By Stephen Frank on Feb 17, 2016 08:21 pm
There are some in California that would like to create an aggregation of solar energy. Why put solar panels on prime farm land, how about using bad land—so called “brownfields”—land previously used as dumps. This gives value to the land, allow for the community to create solar energy, a winner for everybody—except the unions. “These […]
