San Fran to RAISE Cost of Housing for Poor and Middle Class Via Ballot Measure
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 08:05 pmGreat news for the owners of housing in San Fran. The government is planning to change the requirements for affordable housing, by DOUBLING the demanded under market priced housing (affordable housing), which in turn will raise the value of current housing, without a new paint job being needed. “The board voted 11-0 to place on […]

Santa Barbara Prepares For Tax Initiative to Fund Streets Maintenance
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 08:03 pmThis must be the year of taxes. In the Bay Area non-elected officials are putting a region wide tax on the ballot. Cities in SoCal have decided to expand sales taxes to finance general fund expenditures—actually to fund the increased CalPERS mandate (if they told the truth the people would vote NO). The November ballot […]

Sand: AB 2754 by Assemblywoman Grove: Allows Teachers to Join or Not Join Union
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 08:01 pmA few days ago the California Political News and Views did a story about two bills presented by Assemblywoman Grove in relationship to making unions a bit more honest. One of the bills deserves special attention. What would happen if teachers were allowed to vote to see which union is to represent them? What happens […]

Proposed “Business Tax” In Santa Clara County to “Fund” Transportation—Texas Job Expansion?
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 07:59 pmDemocrats LOVE taxes—any they can get. IN the Silicon Valley there is a new proposal to create a business tax in several cities, Palo Alto, Mountain View, Sunnyvale and Cupertino, to finance transportation issues. I think this is really being offered by the Texas Chamber of Commerce—sine they will be the big winners if this […]

Time Running Out for California’s Voting Machines
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 07:57 pmOur voting machines are old. Many need replacement. The bigger question is whether we replace them with newer models of the old machines—or a new system? We could go two ways if we want a new system. The Registrar of Voters could go back to the old system of paper ballots and do hand counts. […]

Debate emerges over state actions needed to ease teacher shortages
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 07:53 pmWhat is the role of the State in creating the current teacher shortage and what is its role in ending it? In 1975 the teacher shortage started.

How the Tax System Favors Government Workers and Punishes Independent Contractors
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 07:51 pmI will admit, the unions are very smart. They buy candidates for office, to assure later legislation. Then the legislators steal from private workers and firms that do not steal “dues” from workers paychecks. To make sure the playing field is uneven, the union owned legislators change the tax laws, to assure private, honest firms, […]

Bay Area Newspapers “Consolidating”—Ending Local Coverage
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 07:50 pmThe newspaper business in the Bay Area is dying—like a disease, not all at once, but in pieces. The Contra Costa Times, the Oakland Tribune and the Daily Review will consolidate into the East Bay Times. The San Mateo County Times will join the San Jose Mercury News to become Mercury News. This will mean […]

Unions Fill Power Vacuum at Obscure California Regional Government–To Raise Taxes
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 07:48 pmThere will be a vote on the June 7 ballot in the Bay Area to raise taxes—in this very LEFTIST region, the tax on Apple and Goodle will be the same on your small condo.

Shocked? Radical Climate Change Professor/Advocate Accused of Corruption
By Stephen Frank on Mar 02, 2016 07:46 pmCorruption by someone trying to kill American jobs and our economy? While receiving a $314,000 salary to teach at a public university (not a typo), the professor is also demanding that if you do not support “climate change” and believe it is not a “serious” problem, you should be SUED by the Federal government under […]
