10 YEARS AGO TODAY – Al Gore Predicted North Pole Would Be COMPLETELY ICE FREE in Five Years

By Stephen Frank on Dec 13, 2018 09:55 pm
I believe we are in the midst of “climate change”.  We have been in the midst of climate change since the Earth was first formed.  How do you think Greenland got its name—but then we had climate change.  In the 1990’s Al Gore figured out a way to make himself fabulously rich—by scaring people with […]

SHOULD UNDOCUMENTED HAVE ALL RIGHTS? BROWN SAID NO–Just Many

By Stephen Frank on Dec 13, 2018 09:50 pm
Jerry Brown wanted to use law enforcement to protest felons from foreign countries, while making American’s victims of his felons.  But, he did not want to give them a lot more in benefits. “Brown signed the law giving drivers licenses to illegal immigrants. He okayed rules making all immigrant children, even the undocumented, eligible for […]

By Law, California High Speed Rail May Be Doomed To Fail

By Stephen Frank on Dec 13, 2018 09:42 pm
For $100 billion Jerry Brown, Arnold and Gavin in are going to give you a train from Bakersfield to Madera!!  Of course they do not have the $100 billion and no idea where they money to build or operate the system—so very few riders will come from Bakersfield to go to Madera (a great community).  […]

Sweeping regional housing plan under construction

By Stephen Frank on Dec 13, 2018 09:35 pm
Did you really think Sacramento is willing to allow your city council  to determine zoning and the issuance of permits for new housing and industrial/commercial properties?  No need for these folks any more—except to cut ribbons for new businesses and to declare next Tuesday “Hamburger Helper Day in Simi Valley”. “An ambitious regional housing plan […]

Poll: Despite surging economy, Californians anxious about future and want change

By Stephen Frank on Dec 13, 2018 09:19 pm
California has high taxes, bad government education, the worst roads in the nation, the highest cost of living—we also have 12 million people (not a typo) in poverty—and an open borders policy to assure we are a magnet for illegal aliens.  Felons from foreign countries are protected by the police, while honest citizens become the […]

Instead of striking, our energy is better used in finding consensus and building support for our public education

By Stephen Frank on Dec 13, 2018 09:11 pm
When the Rose Parade is over the teachers of LAUSD will be marching—on strike, shutting down the education for 600,000 students.  Since 45% of the graduates get diploma’s based on a “D” average (functional illiterates) maybe teachers on the streets means a better education in the classroom? “In the spring of 1970, I voted with […]

A $3 billion San Diego firm is leaving the state for Texas.  McKesson, a large San Fran firm, has left for Texas.  In the past year 1800 forms have left Californian, taking productive people with them—the vast middle class of our State. “California is facing a bigger issue than its tussle with the Federal government […]
