You're silly :-)

CA is going to stash away $1.8 Billions in in the current budget for a rainy day fund. All in all, they have $8.5 Billions stashed away, enough to weather the next recession.

Which right-wing alternative facts site did you get the information that a state holding $8.5 Billions is broke???????

Go for it.

I assure you no one in SF will care. Too busy with things like Oracle and Salesforce conferences.

Pfft. Metro areas that are the engines of business in this country lean to the Democrats. That's how Hillary could win only about 500 counties, but 64% of America's GDP. Trump won about 2300 counties, but only 36% of the country's GDP. Rural counties don't produce much. Sorry, but that's the truth.

I think it's time, in 2017, that we give them a taste of their own medicine by having red states and towns ban all state and city funded travel to San Francisco until they get rid of their sanctuary city policies!
There seems to be a hashtag for not going to San Francisco as I have seen online.

Unfortunately you show your bias and ignorance by conflating liberals with commies, which undermines your credibility.

Also, there should be no apostrophe in your "it's."

At least it wouldn’t smell like urine.

Does the relationship to "commie" burn a little? Leftists, Communists, Liberals all ride on the same train. Being one is a choice.
