American Thinker-
California was once called “the Golden State.” It has a mellow climate; its agricultural industry was “the fruit basket of America”; San Francisco was “the City that Knows How”; Los Angeles was the “City of Dreams”; and the Sierra mountain range, one of the most beautiful in the world, was a summer and winter pleasure paradise. That’s the California in which I grew up.
The current California isn’t quite so nice. The climate is still lovely, but the agricultural industry has been struggling because of environmental concerns over the Delta Smelt, a small fish.
Regularly occurring droughts, which are part of California’s natural cycle, are proving devastating, mostly because California has refused to upgrade its water system in the last 60 years, even as the population almost doubled. The new plan is to limit people to 55 gallons a day, which gives them a choice on many days between cleaning their clothes and cleaning themselves.
Punishing taxes and regulations routinely drive businesses (AKA employers) out of the state.
Those are all bad things, but what people really know about California today is that it has a homeless problem — 156,000 homeless people, to be specific. Tucker Carlson spent a week looking at the way in which San Francisco, once one of the world’s most beautiful cities, has seen its quality of life collapse under the weight of the homeless. Los Angeles has vast tent cities that have become breeding grounds for medieval disease, while Sacramento is overrun with rats.
But fear not! Governor Gavin Newsom has a plan. He wants to amend the California constitution to mandate that all cities and counties must provide housing and shelter enough for every homeless person within the region: MORE
San Francisco … ‘the Shitty by the Bay’
Newsom is a very sick man. A dummy on the order of LA’s mayor, eric garcetti.
Scary shit, man.
“Governor Gavin Newsom has a plan. He wants to amend the California constitution to mandate that all cities and counties must provide housing and shelter enough for every homeless person within the region.”
It’s called the, “If you build it, they will come” plan!
These conditions did not exist in Europe before the Protestant revolution which shut down the thousands of monasteries which had taken care of the truly needy for centuries, and took the common lands from ordinary people. The economic system prior to 1517 was very just. There was no vast gap between rich and poor.
“There was no vast gap between rich and poor.”
Yeah right, just ask Johann Tetzel, enriching church coffers by selling indulgences to the destitute, lies that Rome could never deliver on, or the various popes living in palaces with lots of gold and servants, like all current popes do.
What is a fact is that you would be tortured and burned at the stake for owning a Bible you couldn’t even read in your own language (they were Latin on purpose), much less trying to translate one that other people could read.
Your church murdered many thousands over the centuries because they threatened to cut into Rome’s power and profits.
But those were the good old days, huh.

He’s gonna wave a magic wand, and – VOILA! The people all have domiciles!!! 🤨
It’s the SAME magic wand that he uses to turn ILLEGAL FOREIGN INVADERS, into law-abiding wards of the state… 🙄
The Liberal Oath of Governing Duties
1.) GIVING – For thee not for me
2.) RECEIVING – For me not for thee
What people fail to recognize, until it’s too late, is that Government never gives anything, it only takes.
