A good way to get all the bums out of other cities and concentrate them in one area.

What happens when we stop going to the movie theatres and not bother watching the garbage on TV (including the crap award/commie activist shows). I guess Hollyweird will need some sort of means to get by, eh?

As is damn' near everything coming out of Californication.

No wonder so many tech, small businesses and wealthy people are leaving the state. Who wants to pay high taxes that'll simply be used to pay people who don't want to work?

Plus crazies from all over the country who can see the advantage of free money plus a mild climate for the price of a one-way bus ticket?

You already have issues getting any help let alone good help. Now the govt wants to pay people a guaranteed givernment check?? Abolish all welfare. ALL OF IT. you will see unwed births drop, unemployment drop, and crime drop. People will be at work instead of on the street with nothing to do.

give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and he will feed himself for life.

We could make them show ID. Then maybe Dominion could develop a computer system to detect fraudulent claims. /sarc

Taking from those who produce and giving it to those who don’t. What could possibly go wrong?

Just read Biden may appoint him Ambassador to India.

Thought Garcetti was really afraid of the Covid.
