By Stephen Frank on Jul 01, 2016 09:13 pm
Prop. 1A in 2008 told us that we could build a high speed train, going from LA to San Fran in 2:45.  They even showed the route, the costs and number of riders.  All of it was a lie.  Today the plan has the high speed rail going slowly for at least half the ride, […]

San Diego’s Public Art Isn’t Very Public

By Stephen Frank on Jul 01, 2016 09:11 pm
If you develop a commercial property or an apartment complex you must add on to the cost an “arts” tax.  That means a few percent of the cost of the project has to be spent on art, whether it fits your design or not.  You can pay the money into a government fund, and the […]

Feds Spend $723,637 Giving College Professors ‘Unconscious Bias’ Training

By Stephen Frank on Jul 01, 2016 09:08 pm
According to Obama, even if you are not biased, you are “unconsciously” biased.  That is like saying Martin Luther King Jr. was a racist because he wanted all people to be treated equally.  Of course, this also means that Barack believes he, himself, is biased. ““Although explicit prejudice has been declining steadily over the past […]

Those Who Care About Victims of Sex Crimes Should Oppose Gov. Brown’s Initiative

By Stephen Frank on Jul 01, 2016 09:02 pm
A Stanford student committed rape and received a six month sentence.  The Left and Women’s rights folks are disgusted with this and they should be—but their anger needs to be turned on themselves instead.  They supported Prop. 47, wanting felonies to become nothing more than a ticket for spitting on the sidewalk.  There wanted people […]

Bike advocates angry at Mayor Lee over recent bike deaths and lack of bike lanes

By Stephen Frank on Jul 01, 2016 08:59 pm
Barack Obama, San Fran Nan and the hypocrite Dianne Feinstein are blaming guns, not terrorists, for the Orlando and San Bernardino attacks.  If they truly believed that why are they allowing us to continue to buy pressure cookers without a background check?  In San Fran, the bikers that ride the streets, free of charge, go […]

By Stephen Frank on Jul 01, 2016 08:55 pm
Should the people of Encinitas, in San Diego County make its own zoning and quality of life decisions—or should special interests and politicians in Sacramento—450 miles away—make the decisions for them?  Who said we have free elections in California?  Sacramento is demanding folks folks against their own interests. “Encinitas in 2013 passed Proposition A, which […]

Will Bay Area Media Blitz Impact Homelessness?

By Stephen Frank on Jul 01, 2016 08:52 pm
Over the past week, every media outlet in the Bay Area—TV, cable, radio, newspaper, blogs, government press releases, non-profits, have concentrated on one issue—homelessness.  They demand money, more affordable housing—to push the cost of market place housing higher—special services.  Not once do they look at government policies causing homelessness, unaffordable housing or the disaster they […]
