The yo-yo’s that run the City of Los Angeles decided that jobs were not important in South Central Los Angeles, the location of the highest unemployment rate in the city. They also decided that lettuce, sprouts and tofu is better for the people of Watts than the food the people prefer to eat. So, no […]

Arnold and our confused Guv Brown agreed with the courts that prisoners need to be comfortable at the expense of the safety of the citizens. So AB 109 reduced the number of State prisoners from 167,000 to 113,000. The criminals are comfortable and more honest people are becoming victims. We also passed Prop. 47—to make […]

The California water crisis just got worse. The State is going to change the water quality requirements around the Delta. The government created water crisis (no dams, no desalinization plants, water flowing into the ocean and more) is getting worse—we were not allowed to plan for the inevitable major drought—environmentalists did not want to “harm” […]

Great news for California taxpayers. If the Obama amnesty for illegal aliens goes forward we will have the honor of paying for the free health care for between 360,000 and 500,000 (for lawbreakers from other nations). Then we will be paying for the education for them as well. Billions is new costs so we can […]

If you work for Google in Santa Clara you get paid a salary. Move to Austin, Texas and keep the same job with Google—you get a 10% increase in wages—with the company paying not a dime extra. Move your company to Texas and you add 10% or more to the bottom line, Texas has neither […]

Unless LAUSD gets a waiver from the Feds, the children of Los Angeles will lose $171 million—the waiver for No Child Left Behind. On the other hand, if the District does not get the money, they will not have to spend it on something bureaucrats and politicians in Washington want for children in East LA […]

The Delta Smelt are trying to be the “Chosen Ones”. We are using our precious water to “save” them. Farms are closing but the fish are being protected. Now the taxpayers are going to use $10 million to breed the smelt—which taste like anchovies and taste a bit like them. The Delta Smelt is fish […]

“In general, pension costs do not represent a near-term threat to municipal solvency, but in many cities, the burden of financing pension benefits is crowding out other spending priorities or adding to pressure for tax increases. A number of cities are spending more than 12 percent of total revenue on pension contributions. Cities with the […]

The city of Los Angeles does not have enough water. In fact millions of acres feet of water flow from the LA River into the ocean. This does not matter. The City wants to spend $1.2 billion to “restore” the LA River as a “lovely” place. Instead, $1.1 billion could build a desalinization plant to […]

The State of Oregon has decided that honest elections are way too difficult to run, better to create easy access to fraud. This is a State where most of the votes are cast by mail. No idea who is casting the votes, easy to get your neighbor to give you their ballot, sign it—then YOU […]

One third of Californians are getting free health care via Medicaid, thanks to the productive people of the State. Doctors got a 60% cut in reimbursements, so are taking on no more Medicaid clients. We had a shortage of doctors, now it is worse, with more with millions more to be covered by fewer physicians—this […]

California has among the highest energy costs in the nation. That goes with the highest taxes, cost of housing, AB 32 killing real jobs and AB 109 along with Prop. 47 making California a great State for criminals. I do not have to tell anyone about the effect of illegal aliens on roads, schools, hospitals, […]

This is going to be an ongoing discussion and debate. We all know that the leaders of Silicon Valley are major donors to Obama and his Democrat buddies. The Zuckerbergs of the world believe in government, though it did nothing to help them. Now that government is beginning to interfere with the computer industry (the […]

The union contract in Los Angeles mandates teachers attend faculty meetings. Like Obama, the unions and the bribe paying teachers refuse to abide by their agreement or oath of office. Since the District is refusing to go bankrupt by paying an increase of 8.5%, the unions have decided not to abide by their contract. Maybe […]

Thanks to be the education “professionals” in Sacramento, our students are going to take tests that have not been piloted or tested. No one knows if they are accurate, test the knowledge of the students or is just a pro forma effort to pretend education is happening in Calif0ornia schools using Common Core. “In 2014, […]

The city of San Francisco wants to be in competition with PG&E—using the energy created by PG&E. This is government at its most obnoxious. Worse, if the public buys from the City, it will pay significantly more PLUS subsidies for others that can no longer afford the over priced, twice sold energy. “Since PG&E will […]

The unfunded liability of the State retiree health care program is $72 billion according to the Legislative Analyst’s Office. Even with increased payments from Sate employees, this is unsustainable. “As an alternative to the long-term debt of retiree health care, the state could offer new hires increased pay or contributions to a supplemental fund that […]

Ask a Sacramento Democrat, you can never be too thin or have too many taxes and fees. California already has the highest cost of rents and housing in the nation..they want to make sure no one challenges us for this dubious honor. ““The bottom line is that every Californian deserves a stable, safe place to […]

“But something else is: a vast repository of state records that scientists and water policy specialists say could dramatically improve our understanding of California’s groundwater resources if they were made public. The records are called well completion reports, or well logs for short. For decades, the California Department of Water Resources has gathered the documents […]
