Ending Mandatory Union Membership Could Save CalPERS!

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:21 pm
California is facing a massive bankruptcy by CalPERS—how is it going to finance the continued sending of retirement checks?  Wisconsin may prove to show how it can be done—and the U.S. Supreme Court may make it happen. “Not only were the sky-is-falling claims wrong, but Wisconsin is in impressive fiscal health. The state’s budget surplus […]

County Supervisors Place Isla Vista Tax on Ballot –in part for “Events”

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:18 pm
Great news for the political hacks of Santa Barbara.  Instead of accepting the vote of the people, saying NO to increases taxes for community facilities and “events”, they are willing to spend tens of thousands of tax dollars, asking for a tax increase again. Less than two years after the people said no. “The Santa […]

Fresno: $$ for “Art” Not Cops

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:16 pm
There is a plan to put a sales tax increase on the ballot in Fresno, to finance more police.  Of course, once you give government money, you have no idea how the money is really going to be spent.  Californians voted a $2.7 billion bond in 2014 for dams—and the State refuses, yes, refuses to […]

Will Fresno Voters Support Public Safety Tax? Police Union Wants to Know.

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:14 pm
It looks like the city council of Fresno is unable to find the money needed to give the citizens a public safety it deserves.  So, instead of cutting wasteful spending, it is looking at asking for more tax dollars.

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:12 pm
San Diego schools are educating students on political action.  Cass time is being taken to organize a walkout from class—instead of using class time for education, the time, paid for with tax dollars is being used to promote the repeal of the Second Amendment.  The students could do this on their time, on March 24—but […]

Malibu City Council expected to ban single-use plastic utensils

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:09 pm
I may be off a bit, but I think it might be a government policy that to live in Malibu you need to be an alcoholic, a druggies, a sexual predator, confused sexually or so rich it does not matter.  That could be the only reason that a town that think silver spoons and forks […]

Quentin Kopp, the author of this story is a Democrat, former Judge, Supervisor and State Senator.  He was never an ideologue.  Kopp was a State Senator when the legislature worked for the best interest of all Californians, not the Leftist radicals and bigots of our time.  He understand the delivery of justice is not a […]

The Licensed Marijuana sellers in California Request State Authorities to Crack Down on the illegal competition.

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:04 pm
How do you get rid of your competitors?  Either by providing a superior product and service or use government to close them down.  For years unions used “green mail” to stop building projects or developments—either abide by obscure environmental rules or create the need for more environmental studies—or allow unions to control your project and […]

Walters: The next big front in California’s water war

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:02 pm
What are your water rights?  What are the water rights of your Water Company or district?  What they are today, does not mean they will be the same tomorrow, due to either legislative action or court order. “It would take a book to fully explain those rights, but there are generally three varieties, to wit: […]

Proposition 13 Must Be Protected, Not ‘Updated’ With Large Property Tax Increase

By Stephen Frank on Feb 26, 2018 09:00 pm
Prop. 13 has grown government revenues, while the Left wants to raise property taxes, in order to LOWER the value of property.  Here is an economic fact, the Left economic illiterates do not understand—the higher the taxes, the lower the property value. “Since the passage of Proposition 13, assessments have grown at an average rate […]
