TAX ORGY IN PROGRESS–California Ballot: 427 Tax or Bond Measures

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:59 pm
California is experiencing a tax orgy never seen in the history of the State.  When you look at the numbers, remember the bonds involved are not fully priced—government refuses to note the cost of the bond is both principle and interest, while the ballot measure never mentions the interest costs.  Prop. 55 is valued at […]

National Debt: $19.5 Trillion– Feds Spending $839,291 for Kids to Play ‘Me Games’ After School

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:57 pm
This looks more like a scam for some politically connected donor to make money than a real education effort.  “A four-year study was awarded to Research, Evaluation, and Social Solutions, Inc. to create an afterschool program for kids to play “Me Games” that use virtual reality. “The word adolescence derives from the Latin word ‘adolescere,’ […]

Cities bailing out pensions with tax hikes

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:54 pm
Why can’t your city open the libraries more hours, hire more police, fix more potholes.  Across the State the answer is the same—the government pension system is a disaster, collapsing and taking with it the cities and government agencies—making sure government is limited in its services due to lack of money.  Lets look at the […]

Why Trump is Winning: 2,000 MORE American Jobs Moving to Mexico

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:52 pm
Ford is closing all of its U.S. small car manufacturing and moving the operation to Mexico.  In February Carrier announced it is sending 2,000 jobs from Indiana to Mexico.  This helps explain why Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and other Rust Belt States.  Thanks to NAFTA, Carrier can send it work to Mexico, then use Mexican trucking […]

In a first, CalPERS may cut small town’s pensions

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:50 pm
It has begun.  Though a small town, Loyalton is about to feel the collapse of the CalPERS system.  They have not been able to pay the pensions requirements for three years, now the system is threatening to cut pensions.  If done, this sets a precedent for other towns that refuse to cut cops to pay […]

Stanford’s batty booze ban–Another Late Night TV Joke

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:46 pm
Did you remember that the Reagan Library was supposed to be built at Stanford University, but the Faculty Senate voted almost unanimously to oppose it.  Happily, the Library is in Simi Valley, my hometown.  Stanford allows the radical #blacklivesmatter on campus spouting its racist, cop hating rhetoric.  Have you been on the campus?  Numerous locations […]

Confused Guv Brown: School Accountability Based on NON-EDUCATION Factors +Tests

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:44 pm
To paraphrase my great friend Don Otto, facts, truth and reality no longer matter—it is “feelings” that count.”  Looks like confused Guv Brown took Don seriously when he vetoed a bill to create accountability in the schools based on learning, shown via testing.  Instead, non-education values will be taken into account to determine if a […]

San Fran Artists Leaving Billionaires Playground for Los Angeles

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:41 pm
It is really bad in San Fran.  The cost of housing is so expensive that the artist community is forced to move to Siberia!  In this case Siberia is 400 miles south in a land called “Los Angeles”.  To a San Fran resident that is like being sent to hell.  But, since billionaire and the […]

Brown Takes Away ANOTHER Right From Workers—Gives it to Government

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:39 pm
Socialism is where government controls the means of production—it does not own it, does not take the economic risks, but controls the economic condition.  In California government determines minimum wages, vacations, scheduling of workers, working conditions  and now the very basic right of workers and employees—the terms of contractual work.  Instead of the worker and […]

False statements might be Prop 57’s (putting criminals on the streets) winning formula

By Stephen Frank on Sep 27, 2016 08:35 pm
Jerry Brown really wanted to be President of the United States.  It did not work out.  Indeed he is acting like the President, Obama and the Democrat in waiting for President, Clinton.  Jerry has decided if he can not be president, he can lie like one.  Hillary lying about Benghazi, the email server, the Clinton […]
