Your favorite VP Kamala Harris

Kamala Harris told voters in 2014 that Proposition 14 was "The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act." Among other reductions in penalties, the law "requires misdemeanor sentence instead of felony for the following crimes when amount involved is $950 or less: petty theft, receiving stolen property, and forging/writing bad checks."

How has that worked out for SF and California in general.

The Democrat Utopia…brought to you by….Well Democrats

Democrats in Big Dem cities face a grim reality

The bill is coming due

As more people shift to remote work and shop around for a place to live, the bill for decades of underinvestment and poor management in America's large cities has come due. Workers are voting with their feet and moving farther from the expensive urban core. And early projections suggest these cities will face major budget problems. The comptroller for the city of New York estimated that the city's non-property-tax revenue would decline by 7% and that the overall deficit would hit $2.9 billion in 2023. In San Francisco, tax revenue is projected to drop by as much as a billion dollars over the next six years.

But people still believe the Utopia theory, if only they can get the tents removed to let them build new buildings….

And they will get bailed out by the federal government just like Chicago has.
