Suspended, Revoked Nonprofits Could Lose San Fran Contracts Under New Policy

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 09:01 pm
The headline says it all, “Suspended, Revoked Nonprofits Could Lose City Contracts Under New Policy: “Why is there a discussion or debate?  If your license has been suspended or revoked, you can’t have a city contract.  Maybe the marijuana smoke has gotten to heavy for the government in San Fran—KNOWN bad people should not get […]

Eber: Change need by the GOP

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 08:57 pm
The bottom line is simple—the California Republican Party does not do the basics of a political Party—voter registration, fielding candidates for all officers, supporting only a few, leaving many with unanswered questions and phone calls.  Money raised does not go to the purposes announced—instead it goes to overhead and consultants. There is good news.  Most […]

Is marijuana legalization driving increases in violent crime?

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 08:53 pm
Is there a correlation between the legalization of marijuana and crime?  Could the open borders and lack of law enforcement also part of the problem? “A review of the crime statistics cast doubt on proponents’ claim that legalization reduces violent crime; to the contrary, homicides have generally increased in pro-marijuana jurisdictions. In Denver, the homicide […]

Racists/Haters Take Over Hayward School District—Tell Parents to Shut up

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 08:50 pm
If you do not want your child to become a bigot and a hater in the Hayward School district, there consider YOU a bigot.  If you want an education for your child and do not like racism, sexual grooming, etc., they tell you to shove it or leave—NO free public education for your child. “Under […]

Elias: A CAUTIONARY NOTE FOR REPARATIONS TASK FORCE

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 08:43 pm
Alabama allowed slaves.  California never allowed slaves.  But the racists running Sacramento want to give tens of billions of dollars to “descendants” of slaves—from 160 years ago.  Good idea.  Then what about others who have been harmed? “Then there’s the question of whether descendants of Holocaust survivors and indigenous Mexicans and Central Americans dispossessed and […]

California Voter Approve $3 Billion in Tax Increases

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 08:36 pm
If you do not vote you do not have the right to complain about government or taxes.  If you are not smart enough to know that tax increases help the unions, special interests and the bureaucrats, not the people, you deserve to pay high taxes—so stop complaining. “This past November, 131 bond proposals were placed […]

Ring: The Biggest Untold Reason for the Decline of Salmon

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 08:27 pm
When government changes the natural order of things, everybody loses.  When you artificially take water meant for farming and people—then give it to a limited number of salmon, we all lose. There is an answer to the problem: “Also measured in the tens of billions of dollars, is the costly choice facing Californians in dry […]

A chimera of equity: SFUSD must reckon with its math education failures

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 08:24 pm
Maybe a lot more math in the San Fran classrooms, instead of sexual grooming, bullying, hate and racism, the kids could get a real education. “Over the subsequent several years, SFUSD claimed its controversial policy — sometimes called “detracking” — had been a success. However, in October 2021 a detailed analysis published by Families for San Francisco (an organization I lead) […]

Environment Report: Key Climate Change Data Lost Forever Amid Erupting Volcano

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 08:12 pm
It took an eruption of a volcano to end one source of scientific misrepresentation to end.  Maybe now we can go back to the real world.  The evaluation of “carbon” is a fantasy story.  It is like the game “telephone”.  One person tells another; by the end of the line the Earth has melted down. […]

Hollywood Slicky Newsom Proves he is an Economic Illiterate

By Stephen Frank on Feb 08, 2023 12:36 pm
Gavin Newsom wants the Feds to investigate why oil and natural gas prices are too high.  I know his head is fried due to the oil his uses on his hair, but I will give him a course in economics. If you limit the supply of a product—by not allowing it to be produced, then […]

Rules for thee: How California Legislature Skirts Its Own Laws

By Sawyer Kamal on Feb 08, 2023 07:30 am
California legislators pass hundreds of laws every year. But sometimes, they free themselves from following them. On one emblematic issue, however, this may be the session when that changes: Lawmakers, who have pushed through major bills to support unions throughout California, may finally let their own staffers organize. For at least the fifth time in […]
