Government Mismanagement: Redwood City to Approved 250 Affordable Housing Units—No $$ to Finance

By Stephen Frank on Apr 12, 2016 07:43 pm
The Redwood City City Council, in the midst of technology geniuses of the Silicon Valley, appears to be economic illiterates.   They are mandating 250 affordable housing units, though they may increase that to 375, out of 2500 homes to be built.  If they had taken Economics I, they would know that the profit lost from […]

ACLU in LA Admits Illegal Aliens Are Criminals

By Stephen Frank on Apr 12, 2016 07:38 pm
Like any other common criminal, the Southern California ACLU would like illegal aliens bailed out of detention.  But, they have already shown a desire to break our immigration laws and with nothing holding to the area, they could be in Tucson in the morning—and never seen again—till caught and detained.  The important message here is […]

No Blank Checks Initiative Raises Many Questions

By Stephen Frank on Apr 12, 2016 07:34 pm
When you look at the headlines most ballot measures look good.  But, when you read them carefully, you get concerned about the unintended consequences.  Remember Prop.47 or Prop.218? “The initiative risks an erosion or distortion of local control over fiscal decisions.

Several U.S. Cities in the Running for New Sea Level Institute

By Stephen Frank on Apr 12, 2016 07:33 pm
Great news for the scam artists in our society.  You can apply for a grant to run a “Sea level Institute”.  This is based on the massive scam of Al Gore, who believes climate change will cause the oceans to rise and flood our cities.  How much does he believe his own rhetoric?  He bought […]

State watchdog dismisses 90% of complaints about California judges

By Stephen Frank on Apr 12, 2016 07:29 pm
Most folks do not understand the judicial system.  Plus, decisions and rulings that run counter to common sense are the law and common sense is not allowed in a court room.  Any wonder in 2015 there were 1200 complaints against judges?  I would have thought many more.  Yet 90% were dismissed just by reading of […]

Some Blame THEIR Bad Driving on Cops Noticing Their Color

By Stephen Frank on Apr 12, 2016 07:20 pm
If you get a ticket because you drove too fast or did not stop for a red light and get a ticket—did you deserve it, because your color might have attracted attention of the local cop or CHP person.  It was not your fault you were born a “minority”, blame it on government. “Jacquez Tucker, […]

“The Environmental Protection Agency has nearly $3 million tied up with contractors that have not done any work for the agency in a year and a half, according to a new audit.
