What Recovery? Los Angeles Deficit Grows From $37 Million to $300 Million IN ONE YEAR

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:58 pm
The media is reporting an economic recovery.  Guv Brown and President Obama are crowing about a “recovering” economy.  Yet city after city is reporting a massive deficit, draw down of reserves and in California the November ballot will be an orgy of tax increases and bond measures—so far at least $300 billion worth.  That includes […]

New Buildings in San Fran Will Require Solar, Says New Rule

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:56 pm
The future of San Fran is solar panels.  Today they are mandating that new buildings use solar panels, exclusively.  The step step, like “earthquake proofing and asbestos elimination, is to force the retro-fitting of the current building with solar energy.  Interesting enough, this is the same time the government of San Fran, using tax dollars, […]

Lawmaker Withdraws Bill That Would Allow Gig Workers to Organize

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:55 pm
Headlines easily misinform the public.  This one says, “Lawmaker withdraws bill that would allow gig workers to organize”.  Actually they currently have that right, we are a free society—people can join together whenever they want.  In this case a Democrat has presented a bill to make it easier for unions to harass free workers and […]

Unions Caught Lying About Charter Schools—No Surprise

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:53 pm
This is as surprising as the Democrats demanding higher taxes—the unions have been caught lying about charter schools.  I do not support public education.  Instead I support the education of the public—and isn’t that what it is supposed to be about? “1. Stanford: On average, LA charter schools outperform traditional public schools. Raymond’s Stanford-based organization, […]

The courts in California have made it clear. No to minimum K-12 funding

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:50 pm
The courts in the State of California have made it clear.  There is no minimum funding for the classroom, whether it is in Beverly Hills, Chico or Irvine.  We also know, thanks to the Democrats, there is no maximum amount to be spent in the classroom, even if it does nothing for the quality of […]

West Sacramento Residents Call for End to System Gang Injunction; Justice for Juveniles

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:47 pm
When a judge issues a “gang injunction” does that make a gangbanger weak in the knees and cry “uncle”? Think the warnings of a DA and the Chief of Police will stop a criminal from doing what they do best, commit crimes?  The idea of an injunction works in a civilized society.  But when many […]

CA Congresswoman Speier: Planned Parenthood Selling Body Parts is Life-Saving (Except for Aborted Baby)

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:45 pm
Jackie Speier either lacks common sense or is so ideological that even babies are her victims.  She thinks that Planned Parenthood, by killing 13 million BLACK babies since 1973 is a good thing—she claims it is a “life saving” action. “Reps. Jackie Speier (D-Calif.) and Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) expressed concern at a Select Investigative Panel […]

CEQA Bill Labeled “Dangerous” for Proposing Transparency

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:40 pm
To the Democrats and radicals in Sacramento transparency, information given to the public is a dangerous weapon—and they never like weapons—so they are outlawing information on economics, debts, public policy going to the citizens of California. “Opponents framed the bill as “dangerous” for proposing transparency in California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) litigation.  SB 1248, which […]

Is California’s Water System Really Broken?

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2016 07:37 pm
Yes, we have the water we need to keep the State going, create jobs and give the farmers the water that is needed.  Instead, the confused Guv Brown gives the needed water to the fish and the ocean—leaving out the people.  Added to the problem is the deterioration of the water pumping system.  What good […]
