Can An Independent Win Boxer’s Seat? Yes, But Republican or Democrat Won’t
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 06:02 pm
Thanks to Prop. 14, neither the Republican, nor Democrat party, or any Third Party be allowed to nominate a candidate to replace Barbara Boxer in the U.S. Senate. Under the terms of Prop.14, ALL candidates are Independent, though they are allowed to express a “preference” for a political party, which does not mean they are […]

Rider: In California ALL Your Insurance Policies Premiums are Taxed—Did You Know?
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:59 pm
There are so many taxes, direct and indirect, that it is impossible to keep up with them. Years ago an economist found that more than 50% of the cost of a loaf of bread was taxes. Now, even I am shocked. Did you know that you pay tax on your premium when you buy insurance […]

Employment Is Up. Paychecks, Not So Much
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:56 pm
The legacy media and the Democrats are crowing about the jobs number—it is now “down to 5.6%. What they are not telling is that 70% or more of the jobs created under Obama are part time/low pay jobs. And, it can be proved that they are not full time jobs—as the unemployment rate goes down […]

California Environmental Protection Act Does NOT Cover Local Stores Dispensing Marijuana
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:52 pm
When the Left doesn’t like something they try every possible technicality to kill a project, either through use of regulations or lawsuits. In both cases they want to make sure they financially break those they do not like. Years ago, Californians voted for medicinal marijuana. I voted against it, but it is the law. Now […]

As Expected: Brown Spends NO $$ From $7.5 Billion Water Bond on Dams
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:49 pm
Brown lied and California jobs and farms died. The California Political News and Views told its’ readers during the recent election campaign that our confused Guv Brown was LYING about using part of the $7.5 billion water bond would be used for water storage. We said the money was really a payoff for special interests […]

Government Take Over of Utilities Begin—Putin/Castro laughing
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:42 pm
Who says California not a Socialist State, as much as Cuba or Russia? Putin and Castro have to be laughing at us. Thanks to government regulations, several cities are going to force PG&E to sell it poles and equipment to a government agency—at a price the agency is willing to pay. If they cannot agree, […]

Farmworkers and the New Civil Rights Struggle – Decertification of Bad Unions
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:39 pm
Unions have become the enemy of workers, black, white, Hispanic and Asian. Hispanic workers in the Central Valley are being harassed for money by a union that has not spoken with them for twenty tears—and they want back “dues” (bribes is the correct term). An election was held, to see if the workers wanted the […]

States Urge SCOTUS to Strike Down S.F. Gun Law
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:37 pm
Over the past few days, four people were killed in the Bay Area. Yet, they are proud of laws that allow criminals (by definition criminals do not abide by laws) to have guns and make honest citizens defenseless. In this case San Fran wants those that invade homes to be safe from homeowners that have […]

Illegal Alien Activists in California One Step Away from French Newspaper Terrorists
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:33 pm
In Paris, terrorists shot up a magazine because they did not like a cartoon. In Santa Barbara, terrorists have begun the process of destroying a newspaper—for the crime of using proper language in a headline. They do not like “illegal aliens” (people that come into this nation, knowingly) being called illegal aliens. They are NOT […]

NSF Funds $18,952 Dissertation on Mating Habits of Syrian Hamsters
By Stephen Frank on Jan 11, 2015 05:30 pm
Did you know that there are Syrian hamsters? I wonder if there are Turkish hamsters, Israeli or Chinese hamsters? I did not know and really do not care. But Obama and the Federal government do care. While Obama allows the Syrian government to kill hundreds of thousands of Syrians, while Syria is the home base […]
