Monday Funny. San Francisco Re-Examines Its Business Ban on 30 (unenlightened) States


Refresher, the Noe Valley bathroom referenced in the video was a single-stall toilet that because of SF’s many restrictions was coming in at $1.7 million. Even SF and Gov. Newsome found the cost exorbitant. Cancelled, even though it was meant to address public defecation.

Ha! Do these people understand consequences, at all? They obviously never thought any of it through. I especially love the Supervisor speaking at the end about how their policies are making this "great, blue, progressive city look like a basket case that can't get anything done".

Fuck San Francisco. They made their bed, let them reap the rewards of leftist ideology. Personally, I LOVE to see it- I truly feel sorry for what few good people are left there, or anywhere in commiefornia but I cannot generate many fucks for the state in general which has willfully poisoned so many minds.

It's working exactly as intended, as it forces the city to buy from approved vendors from which politicians get kickbacks. Sure they had to pass laws effecting departments those politicians aren't directly involved in, but all the better, as it hides their nefariousness by spreading the pain. And those departments will just get a waiver eventually anyway, won't they?

Same system as big corporate lobbyists influencing organizations like the EPA into making rules that prevent new companies from entering the market and creating competition. The stifling of competition makes everything more expensive reduces choice.

Oh, they know....they just don't like the results.

The foolish believe that their high-minded, ideological positions are SO JUST, that the mere principal of their position, they believe will initiate change in OTHER states. They're befuddled why the 'others' don't change instead they throw-around insults and condescension.

The crooks have a connection with friends & family who've set-up 'companies' based in SF or, Calif, for the express purpose of sourcing the goods those SF Departments need, but are prohibited because the seller is located in a restricted state, ergo, the mark-up is at least double the amount. After all, you need to build-in enough margin to run your operation hence the insane costs for a case of copy paper, vehicle parts, mattress', light bulbs, etc...

I'm happy to see the MSM brought it to light. Ridiculous rules!

I take it from the graphic that the states marked red are the "no go" ones. Glad to see my adopted home state as one of them. And I'm a California native.

Yep, they do not understand the consequences, they are literally too stupid to see past their actions, just like all leftists. It is impulsive stupidity, they live for the political moment, and then recoil privately when they discover their plans are a disaster. And Frisco is the king of this behavior; drugs, homeless, illegal invaders, no arrests on crime, etc. etc.

And these same idiotic assholes don't realize they are the laughing stock of the world, they think they are smarter, more ethical, and right on every single issue. No other city in this country deserves exactly what it is receiving.

I see they are still holding to their self imposed moral superiority, they just changed the rules when it wasn't working for them.

Typical Liberal approach.

It's amazing that a city will put its 'social policy goals' at the expense of practical needs. THAT is what made you look like a basket case that can't get anything done. Nothing more, nothing less.

Modern American Liberalism exists primarily for only one reason, and that is to permit the self-identified liberal to believe himself/herself as superior, both morally and intellectually, to the common man.

Being superior, the MAL assumes the need for managing the lives of others, for their own good of course.

The politician achieves power and authority by feeding the sensibilities of those self-identified via an echo chamber of MAL rhetoric.

Simply put, these people are MAL-adjusted.

the solution to ALL of these problems is to get rid of 99.99% of ALL politicians

they're the real roadblocks and the problem creators

these don't happen all on their own - some mental midget needs to create it

SF has shot itself in both feet

let them embrace the suck that they desired and created

I can remember that, not too long ago, California was floating the idea of becoming its own nation.

I'll bet those states in red on the map wish it would happen asap.
