RIP California Dream? Even Top 20% Earners Are Struggling

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:36 pm
Earn $140,000 and live in California, you are probably just getting by.  The so-called rich in California can no longer afford the taxes, housing and cost of living. “Consider this thought experiment: A family of four (two spouses, two children) lives in a median LA neighborhood. The couple are in their mid-30s, and they have […]

9th Circuit Court of Appeals: Apes Have Standing to bring Lawsuits—NOT a Joke

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:34 pm
The joke is on the people of the United States.  An “ape” hired an attorney, signed documents and a lawsuit and had it brought to the 9th Circuit.  How did the ape do these things—how did he pay for the attorney and the filing fees—is his attorney pro bono?  How did the ape decide on […]

Sand: Striking at the wrong target

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:31 pm
From Oklahoma to Kentucky, to Texas and Arizona, teachers are on strike—refusing to teach, claiming they are not paid enough.  Here are the facts: “According to researcher James Agresti, teachers are paid much more than commonly acknowledged. For the 2016–17 school year, the average salary of full-time public school teachers was $58,950 in the U.S. […]

Early Release of Violent Inmates Continues

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:29 pm
Do you really think a criminal should be behind bars for a long time, or get a cup of coffee in prison and then is back on the streets?  Prop. 57 allows rapists to claim the victim was drinking or drugged, hence the rape is a non violent act.  Democrats really hate women. The good […]

Will $12 billion tax bite drive rich from California?

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:25 pm
Half the taxes in California are paid by the top 1% of the population.  As Democrats make the State less hospitable, more of the wealthy will leave—following the middle class that are running from the State.  Add to that, as the nations most taxed people by the State, the new tax bill exposes the corruption […]

If you love crime and victims, you must love Prop. 47.

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:21 pm
“We have repeatedly stated that making thefts under $950 a virtually consequence-free crime would simply encourage more theft and the numbers bear this out. For example, the Part I larceny (also called theft) rate is higher by double digits in each of the three years since the passage of Prop 47 than it was in […]

So, Who’s to Blame for Mayor Garcetti’s Unbalanced City Budget?

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:19 pm
Eric Garcetti is running for president—he recently spoke in Iowa.  At the same time illegal aliens are on a crime wave in his city, while he is protecting them from detainment from ICE.  Los Angeles has the worst streets in the whole nation—and its government education system has collapsed. “Despite a very healthy $340 million […]

Trump Victories: Historically LOW Unemployment/$1.9 Million LESS on Food Stamps

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:15 pm
Unemployment for women, teens, Hispanics and blacks are at an all time low.  Taxes have been cut, job training is needed to bring even more into the employment rolls.  Even better, in sixteen months, 1.9 million have left the Food Stamp rolls—people are working and much fewer in poverty.  End ObamaCare and many more will […]

Fresno Uses City Council to Lobby for Funds from State/Feds

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:12 pm
This looks like a man bites dog story.  Most government agencies, instead of asking the State or Feds for money, hire lobbyists to ask for the money instead of using the elected officials who are responsible for governance.  Fresno has a project that is almost 30 years old—and still not funded!  At the same time […]

Los Angeles City Council JOKE Barring Travel to Arizona is “Repealed”

By Stephen Frank on Apr 24, 2018 08:09 pm
In 2010 Arizona passed a law that the Los Angeles City Council did not like—so it banned city employees from going to Arizona on city business.  Who cares?  They passed it to get votes from the pro-illegal alien special interests.  It seems the city council did nothing to stop the Arizona law, nothing to protect […]
