A film czar? Oh yes, a petty bureaucrat appointed to oversee a segment of the economy just like in the glory days of the Soviet Union.

I guess it's no emergency that 1,000’s of other businesses and entire industries have left L.A. County. It's no emergency that our schools are graduating students with I.Q's to match their shoe sizes. It's no emergency that illegals are overrunning the infrastructure/institutions at the same time that there aren't any funds to keep those infrastructure/institutions maintained and operating safely. It's no emergency that there are more piglets on the teets than there are teets.
The people of La-la land have elected yet another economic and social moron. -Wb

Los Angeles’ new mayor has vowed to help stanch the flow of film and TV production jobs out of Hollywood, starting with the appointment of a film czar at City Hall.

There’s a lot of irony in the fact that the people in our country’s political class who call themselves ‘Czars’ are the very same kind of people who pumped bullets into the Romanov’s.

What disgusts me is the hypocritical double-think. Hollywood muckety-mucks understand the horrible effects of runaway unionization and high taxes when their own pocketbooks are involved. But their product sends a constant Leftist message demanding the things they’re trying to escape.

The real question, Mr. Mayor, is why the industry has stayed so long.
