Phony Steve Glazer—“Opposes” BART/Union Cabal Today—But Tomorrow?
By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:09 pmWe were told that Steve Glazer, the consultant that pushed Prop. 30, a $42 billion tax increase, was a “moderate”. Republicans were forced out of the race for State Senate in the Special Election last year on the basis he could be talked to—that was before he voted to kill hundreds of thousands of jobs […]

LAUSD Fined $7.1 Million: Law Violation/Holding Students Hostage in Failed Schools
By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:08 pmHow bad do the unions want to hold children hostage to failed government education in Los Angeles?

LA County Crime Skyrockets—Sets Up Monitoring of Wages for Minimum Wage Earners Instead
By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:07 pmGovernment loves new laws—that allows them to create new bureaucracies and hire lots of folks that will then pay dues to unions— making them even stronger. This is not about efficiency in government—it is about powerful government. Los Angeles has a major crime problem, thanks to AB 109, Prop. 47 and the amnesty given criminal […]

California Considers Cutting Cord on Landline Service by 2020
By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:06 pmI bet you have many friends that no longer have landlines. In a recent movie I saw a phone with a cord going to the wall and thought “how quaint”. Today the younger you are the less chance you have a real phone—your cellphone is the lifeline to the world. Now, ATT&T wants to end […]

Billions Lost to Outdated Tax Schemes, Calif. Audit Finds
By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:05 pmGovernment by definition is incompetent, mismanaged and corrupt. Sometimes all three, at the same time. “Lax oversight over the state’s six largest corporate income tax expenditures cost it more than $2.6 billion in forgone revenue in 2012-13 alone and the state auditor says it’s unclear if some of the corporate tax breaks are actually sparking […]

After NINE YEARS: State Junks $179 Million Medi-Cal IT System, Will Start from Scratch
By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:03 pmBy definition government is incompetent, mismanaged and/or corrupt. This is a case of total and absolute incompetence.

Why Americans are Angry: Congress Approved $5.1 Billion Earmarks in 2016 Despite Ban
By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:02 pmWhen the Republicans took over Congress we were told ”earmarks” ( special language in legislation to help a single person or company” would end, immediately. Not true. This year the identified cost is $5.1 billion, last year it was $4.2 billion—so it is not even decreasing. ““Pork-barrel spending is alive and well in Washington, D.C., […]

Sacramento’s “Secure Choice” Pooled 401K – Too Frugal for Public Workers
By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:01 pmThis is hard to imagine. Currently, CalPERS has an unfunded liability of over $700 billion. Unless forced to do so, no one would put their retirement funds in such a sketchy operation—it is totally unsustainable and were it a private fund, closed down and the management looked at for criminal charges. Now the hack politicians […]

By Stephen Frank on Apr 13, 2016 08:00 pmThanks to Prop. 47. AB 109 and the amnesty given to illegal aliens by Obama, thousands of more criminals are on the streets. You would think that the jails would be over crowded and we will need more jail space. Instead in Santa Ana they are debating the closure of a jail. Could this be […]
