San Francisco Supervisor Proposes Robot Tax

It’s interesting how Democrats on average seem more aware of how automation threatens the economic system of most of the world, and the resulting mass unemployment must be faced with planning. Perhaps it’s because the Ds are more comfortable with handing out cash (one suggested solution, namely Universal Basic Income), while Republicans see smart machines […]

Texas Governor Greg Abbott Signs Anti-Sanctuary City Bill into Law

Here’s some good news from Texas. After working its way through the legislature, the bill prohibiting sanctuary cities made it to the governor’s desk, and he signed it on Sunday.

Tucker Carlson interviewed the governor last week and asked him about the legislation. Gov. Abbott explained what it would do:

GREG ABBOTT: This law ensures […]

San Francisco Considers Robot Tax to Counter Job Loss

San Francisco County Supervisor Jane Kim is investigating how a tax on robots might help to mitigate the job destruction of the coming automated workplace, perhaps following the suggestion of Microsoft founder Bill Gates who recommended a few months ago that job-killing robots should be taxed.

Is this not an ironic turn of politics? The […]

San Francisco’s Sanctuary Policy Caused the Deaths of Four People: Now the City Is Doubling Down to Protect It

It’s amazing that liberals believe they are superior moral beings, while at the same time they don’t mind the carnage that results from their beloved policy of sanctuary cities for illegal aliens, including violent criminals.

Take Francisco Sanchez, the confessed killer of Kate Steinle whom he shot as she strolled with her father on a […]

San Francisco Group Wants More Housing to Be Built

A couple decades ago, “Manhattanization” was a dirty word in San Francisco because people didn’t want a forest of huge skyscrapers built downtown or tiny stacked apartments to be the standard housing. But these days it’s different because millennials apparently don’t mind being crammed together in accommodations people wouldn’t accept in earlier times. There is […]

California Chinese Pol Leland Yee Is Sentenced to Five Years Prison Time

Remember Leland Yee? Straight outa Chinatown, the San Francisco Democrat is going to the big house after being convicted of racketeering last summer.

The oddball corrupto-crat posed as an anti-gun zealot for Democrat campaign events, but was happy to engage in serious weapons trafficking with Philippines Islamic separatists.

Leland first came onto my viewscreen […]

San Francisco Loony Leaders Push Local Voting for 16-Year-Olds

San Francisco is famous for its crazy left politics (like sanctuary and coddling diverse criminals), and the latest is a doozy. The lefty lights of the city have decided that lowering the voting age to 16 for local elections will help engage the kiddies in political struggle.

Apparently the schools are not creating sufficient cadres […]

Poll Shows San Francisco Tech Backlash Is Not Universally Supported

In San Francisco, the low-intensity warfare of hipsters and immigrants against tech workers has been boiling along. The city has experienced a substantial boom in tech business, with new workers paying top dollar for apartments, and housing has gotten more expensive as supply declines and demand increases.

The alleged suffering of certain victim groups caused […]

In San Francisco, Diverse Cheaters Get a Free Ride

San Francisco is facing a budget deficit of $483 million in the next fiscal year, so it has been trying to tighten up on the many fare cheats who ride the city’s buses without paying.

For the last little while, authorities for Muni (aka Municipal Transportation Agency) sent around groups of officers to ticket the […]

San Francisco Intends to Boycott Arizona

The capital of the Left Coast has serious problems at home — including a projected budget deficit of $522 million and an unemployment rate of 10.3 percent for the city and county — but the San Francisco Board of Supervisors takes its valuable time to condemn Arizona for stepping up to the plate on borders […]

San Francisco Top Cop Forced to Grovel to Misogynous Muslims

San Francisco has a new police chief who is experiencing some rough patches in getting used to the curious customs of the place, where diversity ideology is enforced with a Stalinist fervor. Chief George Gascon committed a faux paux about a week ago by making a non-fawning remark about Muslims, namely that they are involved […]
