A Democrat Created Price Gouging Problem

August 22, 2024 Steve MacDonald

California’s list of failures is long, from high taxes and poverty to lax enforcement of theft. Crime pays, and foreign invaders are often held in higher esteem than natural-born residents.

Does Anyone In California Have An Ounce Of Brilliance

May 16, 2024 Ray Cardello

California is one of the Crown Jewels of America. It is a massive state that is as different from north to south as America itself. I have not had the pleasure of visiting the state and driving the length of the PCH, but with the current condition of California, I think I will remove it from my wishlist.

Leading the Nation in Making People Jobless and Homeless

Democrats reportedly are celebrating after passing their $20. hr min wage for many businesses. Yup, a victory for labor rights, they say, only there is a cost.

The Marxist goons in Leftistan (DBA California) passed a law requiring retailers with 500 or more employees to include a gender-neutral children’s section or face a 500.00 fine. Well, of course, they did, but wait until you hear what the sponsor had to say about it.

November 11, 2023 Auntie Vaquser

You’ve heard the term when pigs fly. How about the one where progressive left-coasters advance legislation requiring insurance companies to define pigs that can’t fly as disabled and eligible for medical intervention? Now, replace pigs with “men” (that should be easy) and fly with “pregnancy” (not as easy).

LA Is Full of Whores – Is Anyone Surprised by That?

October 26, 2023 Steve MacDonald

There’s a new fast food law in California. It raises the minimum wage for fast-food workers to $20 per hour.

August 27, 2023August 26, 2023 Steve MacDonald
