Oh but everybody wants to live there, it's so nice and warm. Non-disease ridden places are cold and boring.

He's a RINO. Pro immigration, pro climate change, pro all that inclusion stuff.



Faulconer lays out vision for 'New California Republicans' - The San Diego Union-Tribune

What is happening throughout California is that the middle class are fleeing because they cannot afford to live there and it's morphing into a state of wealthy/poor.

I lived in San Francisco for 3 years. It was disgusting. I could not wait to leave. I hated it. It has zip to do with being liberal.

You need to educate yourself why there is a massive homeless problem in California and it has nothing to do with being a Democratic state. Go away and research Californias homeless problem then come back here with an honest answer.
Well, to be honest those running SF make most liberals look ultra conservative and have for many years...

My HS buddy that live in San Francisco makes well over 100k a year, and all he can afford is a studio.

People are being priced out of their homes. Oakland apartments that cost 800 a month five years ago have tripled in rent.

I wish I could say that I hope that never happens to people, like those in this thread that are callous about the plight of the broke people, but I'm not that enlightened of a person.
Those days I spoke of were well before Google and their "ilk" took over SF making SF unaffordable to all except the wealthy. Some of this goes back to when good old Diane Feinstein was boss hog there. The SF stink and homeless takeover has been going on for well over 20 years...

I noticed the rich/poor contrast even back in the 80s. Now it's crazy. I don't understand the willingness to live like a pauper just to reside there unless one has a guaranteed track to becoming one of the "haves". Even then, the homeless are still drugging and crapping on the streets in ever increasing numbers.

Maybe the wealthy like looking down on poor and middle class even if they have to step over needles and piles of dung to get to their offices. In most places the working class/poor would be horrified at the sights and sounds and smells of what is going on in elite expensive cities.

I know many California cities have the smell of liberalism which is the smell of feces and urine.

I was in downtown Los Angeles very recently and the stench of urine and feces was absolutely
crazy. Streets full of tents line overpasses and many streets downtown, yet the liberal California
politicians ignore it and turn their back on the homeless and have no shame that just a trip to a California
cities downtown could sicken someone.

It is like a third-world country in California. A gilded elite class than tremendous amounts of filth at ground-level that is nearly as much of a health hazard as chicken sitting in a hot sun.
So this is what conservatives have resorted to? The "smell" of liberalism is feces and urine? Give me a break.

All you can do is raise taxes and build more homeless shelters.

Maybe all the 1%'ers that live there can pitch in and build some homeless shelters instead of buying their 5th mansion?

Get Rid Of Democrats is their only idea of a solution for fixing any city's problems.
