California Court APPROVES of Secret Deals With Unions—Keep Public in the Dark

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:54 pm
Once again, the people paying the bill are not being allowed to find out how contracts and agreements are made between unions and government—in many cases those representing government—and in ALL cases those approved by many elected officials that TOOK money for campaigns from the unions.  A clear conflict of interest and a court has […]

My Modest Proposal to Make Property Tax Breaks Live Forever

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:52 pm
We bought our current home about thirty years ago.  Thanks to Prop. 13 we pay a predictable property tax every year, which is almost reasonable.  Yet, our kids are grown and we have discussed selling and buying a smaller home.  In the back of our minds is that facts that if we sell and buy […]

Sand: Charters

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:49 pm
I am confused.  Progressives believe a 13 year old is smart enough to decide to kill a baby.  But a 30 year old women is not smart enough to determine the education venue for her children.  Women can determine if they want to become a physical man (their DNA is still that of a woman) […]

Whiner/Haters/Hypocrites/Sexual Predator enablers Golden Globes: Viewers DOWN 11%

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:47 pm
The people of the United States have spoken—Meryl Streep who called Harvey Weinstein a G-d, is a hypocrite/enabler.  Oprah, who kissed Weinstein and promoted him—and he USED her to get women into his bed—is a fraud.  Those that accused Weinstein and others was NOT allowed to attend the Golden /Globes, while those like Streep were […]

High hurdle for pension cuts in new court ruling

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:45 pm
The chance of saving CalPERS was diminished yesterday, by court order. “An appeals court yesterday ruled that the pensions of current employees can be cut without providing an offsetting new benefit, but only if there is “compelling evidence” that a reduction is needed for the successful operation of the retirement system. The new ruling in […]

Assembly Speaker Says Single-Payer Remains Shelved

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:43 pm
I guess Socialist/Democrat Assembly Speaker Rendon could not find a spare $400 billion a year to finance free health care for illegal aliens already here and those that would be attracted to a State that has free health care AND protects them from the Federal government.  The Brits just found out the cost of single […]

Phony “Surplus”: California is sitting on a surplus, but don’t expect a refund

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:41 pm
Our pensions system and health care guarantees already have over one trillion dollars in unfunded liabilities.  Surplus—that is a joke.  Our roads are the worst in the nation.  A surplus, what is the punch line.  Our schools are failing, crime is rising, yet some talk of a surplus.  Democrats are living in an alternative universe.  […]

No, Apple Is Not Responsible For Your Kids’ Smartphone Addiction

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:39 pm
  If you child drinks a beer, is it the fault of the beer company?  Should your child decide to steal a car—is that because of a TV show?  So, why do we scream at Apple, if young people use an IPad, a smartphone or other tech device?  Is it possible this has nothing to […]

Major Donor Reconsiders Support for Democrats Who Urged Al Franken to Quit

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:36 pm
Yes, the Republicans have real problems heading into the November election.  I submit that the Democrats have an even worse problem—they have major donors that SUPPORT sexual predators and hypocrites.  Last night while Meryl Streep was whining about sexual predators and the need to speak up, Facebook and Twitter had dozens of photos of her […]

Walters: Commentary: Uncle Sam gives school reformers a gift

By Stephen Frank on Jan 10, 2018 08:31 pm
As with roads, housing, pension reform, public safety, California government is failing, in this case, failing our kids. “One of the many fronts in the school war has been the federal Every Student Succeeds Act, which requires states, as a condition of receiving federal school aid, to provide some of the direct oversight and accountability […]
