California’s Restrictive Gun Laws Still Can’t Prevent Shootings

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:58 pm
Chicago and California have strict anti-gun, anti-Second Amendment laws.  Yet, Chicago is the murder capitol of the nation—and a million guns are legally sold each year in California.  Add to that the new deal—“ghost guns”—people making guns in their garage, with no registration.  Imagine people being free to abide by the Constitution. “California has the […]

California Regulators Shut Down Distillery for Serving Alcohol/Obeying Gov’t Rules

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:56 pm
I spoke this week by email with Brian Christenson, who—with his wife and a close friend—opened Blinking Owl in 2016. A frustrated Christenson tells me he and his fellow owners have invested at least $3 million in the distillery. He says the state’s “strong Prohibition hangover is pretty shocking in this day and age.” Why […]

Financial Forecast for Santa Barbara County Includes Increasing Costs, Possible Recession

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:53 pm
Governor Newsom a couple of months ago in the Sacramento Bee announced his 2020 budget will in part be based on the State going into recession.  The folks running Santa Barbara County have taken heed—they too see a recession.  While the rest of the nation is in the midst of a massive prosperity spurt due […]

CalEPA Studying Ways to Sunset the California Economy

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:49 pm
High taxes are killing the California middle class—they are fleeing the State.  High housing costs are causing millennials, especially young tech folks in the Silicon, to leave the State.  Then you have failed education, transportation gridlock caused by failed government policies.  Then you have junk science promoted by government agencies, killing jobs, killing housing, limiting […]

What Are the Results of California’s Prop. 47 Half A Decade Later?

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:46 pm
When you have a 1.6% arrest record for crimes, you know crime is out of hand—and government is responsible. “However, California reported a 51,000 additional thefts statewide in 2016, according to the Independent Institute. In San Francisco, vehicle break-ins rose 24 percent from 2016 to 2017, setting a new record of 31,322 reported thefts. That’s […]

California Democrats can speed up improvements to PG&E’s antiquated system. Here’s how

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:43 pm
All the Democrats have to do is what the State of Florida has done—aggressive forest management.  California has 146 million dead trees in our forests.  Last year Florida cut down 2,000,000 trees.  We cut down 58,000.  They did not have the massive forest fires we did.  Government in Florida worked for the people and community.  […]

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:40 pm
If you are sick and want to live, and are from England or other socialist medicine countries, come to the United States.  What to save tax dollars for health—by not serving the sick, make them wait in line for months and years to see doctors and get life saving procedures—support Medicare for all by Warren/Sanders […]

Janus Wants $$ Back From Union that STOLE His Money

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:36 pm
For years unions stole money from Mark Janus.  It took years for the Supreme Court to rule that the money was stolen from Janus and tens of thousands of others.  Now the unions say they can keep the stolen money since the Supreme Court said it was wrong—and anything stolen before the decision is kept […]

Grim Financial Reality Is Settling in at SANDAG –Lies Caught Up With Agency

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:34 pm
SANDAG has abused the taxpayers of San Diego for years.  They made promises, got billions in bond money and have lied about even starting projects from 2004!  Now they want more money, but can not account for the money they have already taken. “This month, the agency’s chief economist found a new way to convey the financial […]

Assemblyman Lackey Demands Justification of Astronomical Cannabis Tax Rate Increase

By Stephen Frank on Nov 25, 2019 08:30 pm
I guess some really do not understand the reason California legalized marijuana.  It was NOT for the purpose of ending illegal selling of pot.  Nope.  It was for the purpose of using the legalization to promote the use of pot—while illegal sales go on.  In San Fran, the new DA is ordering police NOT to […]
