Socialist Democrats don't care about your progressive values. Only theirs matter for themselves.

"Social capitalism" is better for several reasons....
- It'll confuse many, so they'll have to investigate it.
- It's more accurate.
- It'll upset the commies.

Far be it from me to defend 'socialist democrat'. I find it prejorative.
Personally, social capitalist is a fair description of me.

Nothing my eye, Something for sure
I might say Conservatives want a do nothing, puppet government with a strong police force and strong military so they can rule by wealth and might in total secrecy. 'Peace through strength' is the Conservative motto. Rule with an iron hand. No economic regulation. No social programs for the disabled, poor, and elderly. Just let them die in the streets i suppose.

You should see the slew on videos on this.

People lined up and down the street by the hundreds, bags of feces laying on the ground, needles and syringes everywhere, and the incredible footage of literally dozens of people at any given place lined up on the walls shooting their arms up with Heroin or other drugs and can barely move themselves much less articulate in any fashion.


If the Socialist Democrats take charge it won't be San Francisco anymore looking like this. I'll be pretty much the entire country if they have their way.
The terrible conditions where the right is in power is utterly underreported - rampant drug abuse, crime, people dying in droves for lack of health care, poverty, hunger, spreading disease and the like. Pretty soon they'll be burying people in mass graves. The horror is utterly sad.

Meanwhile in the real world and not a fantasy world, CA is gaining in the number of educated people as the horror unleashed by the right causes people with a future who can leave to leave.

By the way, I'm not saying that there are no problems and that everyone on the left is a wonderful person, but given the degenerate in the White House, the right wing losers in Congress etc and the mess in poor right-wing governed states, to go on a trumpian-style rant about the left is laughable. And sad.

Or call in the Marines because the state isn't doing much. It is always too little and too late and it is frustrating to say the least. The state isn't even budging a single inch to pass Right to Shelter legislation, it is always in committee and they seem intent on keeping it in that status.
Cite for that? I don't see anything but a bill introduced at the end of last year.

By the way, I live in close enough proximity to SF to have a good idea about what is going on there. A tremendous problem we have is success - so much money is being made that the cost of living has escalated making it very difficult for people who are making a decent, if modest, living to find affordable housing.
 

Twilight Hue

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
I remember visiting San Francisco about 15 years ago as a kid. It was beautiful then, albeit very hilly, and the one thing that stuck with me most was poor 10-year-old me getting God-awful diarrhea from either Ghirardelli chocolate or Bubba Gump Shrimp while we were walking on the way back to the hotel. My parents were trying to rush me and my brother back and I was sobbing as I hobbled along with some of the worst stomach cramping I have ever experienced. The shrimp was tastier, so I blame the chocolate.

I still refuse to eat Ghirardelli chocolate to this day because of that.
Remember this song?.........




The honeymoon is over. Now the reality sets in its full glory.

A visit to San Francisco can see how well that is working.
