San Diego Unions: Gov’t Energy Workers MUST Join Union or NO WORK—Socialism in Action

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 09:01 pm
San Diego has a Socialist Mayor, registered as a Republican.  Kevin Faulconer wants to close down SoCal Edison and have government take it over.  That is what the “Choice” effort is about—government forcing people into a government run energy company—like they have in Cuba and Venezuela—look at how well that works. Now we found out […]

Walters: School spending popular, taxes not so much

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:56 pm
Folks want quality schools.  Maybe they have become “woke” and realize that money is not going to education, it is going to pensions, benefits, housing and unions—not the classroom, “The poll found only tepid support for a pending ballot measure that would create a “split roll” for property taxes, thus increasing levies on commercial property […]

Judge Declines Review of Freeze on California Offshore Fracking Permits

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:53 pm
California is one bill away from a recession.  There is a bill in Sacramento, that would end drilling and fracking for oil in California.  Billions in revenues would be ended, companies closed, thousands of well paying jobs killed.  Add to that forcing us to IMPORT all of our oil products, to California government requirements would […]

Study: Developing Underused City Land Could Provide Much-Needed Housing

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:49 pm
We have a housing crisis.  We have a financial crisis for government.  How about selling off government owned land, allow private developers to build homes and then put the homes on the property tax rolls—instead of sitting idly collecting no revenues? “The study, prepared for the San Diego Chapter of Lambda Alpha International, a land […]

Santa Clara County to explore forming its own public bank–Socialist Movement Growing

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:46 pm
Santa Clara wants to go full force into being California’s first Socialist County.  They are looking at opening up a bank—owned by government.  That means taking public money out of private banks and then having politicians decide who can get a loan and who can’t.  Another reason for business to stay away from California. “The […]

San Jose lawmakers worry about light rail extension’s future–20 Years and Nothing Except Taxes

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:42 pm
As I said for decades that government is incompetent, mismanagement and/or corrupt.  In the case of San Jose—it is all three. “By imposing a 30-year sales tax, county voters in 2000 decided to expand a light rail service into San Jose, but now it appears the long-awaited Capitol Expressway light rail extension to the Eastridge […]

60% of California Counties VIOLATE Federal Immigration Laws

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:38 pm
I bet you thought that law enforcement enforced our laws.  In California 60% of the counties are run by Sheriffs and police chiefs that refuse to obey their oath of office—and prefer to protect criminals from foreign countries than make Americans safe in their homes and on the streets. “A recent review by Asian Americans […]

Burglary Tourism” Comes to California and Simi Valley

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:30 pm
This story is persona for me.  I live in Simi Valley, which according to the FBI is one of the safest cities in the nation for crime, for a city of our size—125,000 people.  Yet, we get hit every day with crimes from illegal aliens that go unreported since the police do not bring charges, […]

THE BIG SQUEEZE: How Unfunded Pension Costs Threaten Educational Equity

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:27 pm
The teachers union and your local school district is refusing to tell the public the true cost of the CalSTRS pension crisis.  Six years ago, on average $500 per pupil was the cost of the pensions system.  Next year it will be $1600 per pupil.  Three time the cost in just six years.  What is […]

Tom Del Beccaro: The Democratic presidential field is flush with contenders — for vice president

By Stephen Frank on Apr 25, 2019 08:24 pm
As of today there are twenty legitimate and semi-legitimate candidates for President on the Democrat side of the aisle.  Except for a couple, all are openly Socialist, believing in higher taxes, junk science, open borders and haters of Israel.  You have one Socialist candidate, Kamala Harris who’s family owned slaves.  Then you have Sanders, who […]
