LA Teachers Union: We Need 30% Dues Increase to Continue “Business as Usual”

By Stephen Frank on Jan 27, 2016 08:38 pm
Is it impossible that common sense, ethics and morality have returned to teachers in LAUSD. Thanks to a lawsuit before the Supreme Court, teachers may be allowed to stop paying bribes to the radical/Leftist unions that have killed government education. UTLA the LAUSD teachers syndicate—either pay them dues or you are not allowed to work—, […]

Independent Analyst Favors CA District of Choice Program

By Stephen Frank on Jan 27, 2016 08:34 pm
Children deserve the best education possible. No two children are the same, though government schools treat are kids alike, hence the failed education system. They got rid of vocational education, to assure those who wanted that type of work got no training. They treated kids that could go to college and those who would barely […]

Obama Wants Federals Laws Non Threatening to Bruce/Caitlin Jenner and Friends

By Stephen Frank on Jan 27, 2016 08:31 pm
Bruce Jenner/Caitlin Jenner has the right to call himself/herself anything she/he wants. What Jenner does not get is to neuter federal laws and regulations because of his emotional space. We have ISIS, terrorists, trillions in debt, failed schools, dying health care and unions that own whole sections of government—yet Obama is worried about the words […]

The Assault on Safety Continues: Eliminating Bail is the Latest Target

By Stephen Frank on Jan 27, 2016 08:24 pm
Thanks to AB 109, over 50,000 vicious criminals were let out of prison before finishing their sentences. Plus, tens of thousands of other criminals never went to prison, because a judge demanded, and Arnold and Jerry agreed, that prisoners should be comfortable in prison. Then we have Prop. 47, passed by the people, making felonies […]

Totalitarian States Set Pay Rates for Workers—Not Free States

By Stephen Frank on Jan 27, 2016 08:21 pm
The November election could see the continuation of the former Golden State run down the road toward totalitarianism. If a ballot measure passes the State of California, not the Board of Directors of a hospital will decide the pay and benefits. The good news for the administrators is that the good folks will get great […]

Support ‘withers away’ for people with special needs: State has pulled $1 billion in funding since 2008; nonprofits losing money

By Stephen Frank on Jan 27, 2016 08:10 pm
Thanks to Guv Brown, we have tens of thousands of new crime victims each year, at a cost of hundreds of millions of dollars. Brown and his Democrat friends have no problem telling kids that two plus two can equal five—but by the 7th grade will learn all they need to know about sex, sex […]

Obama Wants to Cure HERPES—By Putting People on Space Ships? (NOT A JOKE)

By Stephen Frank on Jan 27, 2016 08:08 pm
Why do we have a $19 trillion debt? Why do we think that politicians are weird? Herpes cured on space flights? I wonder if Barack ever heard of “simulators”? These are devices that simulate space flight—and save tens of millions of dollars versus a rocket into space. “The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is spending […]

Why Lower Oil Prices Are Hurting California’s Transportation Projects

By Stephen Frank on Jan 27, 2016 08:06 pm
Government is crying—thanks to lower gas prices, tax dollars for “transportation” projects has declined. Of course, they have plenty of money for roads, if they did not spend hundreds of millions for bike lanes on city streets. This of course makes it more dangerous to drive on streets—oh, and the bikers are not taxed a […]
