Even local CA government is stupid.
It’s really easy to waste other people’s money.
So the money is sitting in some ones account.
Some needs to know how to excess the money.
Only cost loss should be the making and disposal cost.
Everywhere liberals govern, waste follows. Nashville is considering a new multi-million dollar soccer stadium to lure professional soccer there. This after they just spent $91 million for a minor league baseball stadium and over $300 million for the Titans’ stadium.
And then they wonder why their taxes are so high.
no reason and no accountability.
Why would Golden State Warrior fans want a card with The L.A. Clippers on it?
It still cracks me up POTUS never invited them to the White House after their mouthing off about him. Love it.
looks like these cards have fees beginning in 2018.
They need to do something before they lose all that money.
Give it to the homeless - it’ll get ‘em off the street.
The problem wasn’t that too few people came to the parade. It was that they didn’t use Clipped Cards to do it.
Three straight? That would be news to Cleveland who won last year.
Even back in the early seventies when they built BART, I knew something wasn’t quite right with the idea of the government pushing something that wasn’t really needed, and connected communities that really never wanted to be connected in the first place. The Bay Area Rapid Transit system was built and is maintained entirely on the backs of the California taxpayer, yet generously benefits financially a select few who got into key positions of ‘public servitude’ early on like a pyramid scheme. It also ushered in a forty year crime wave from the rougher parts of the Bay Area into the suburbs. Most people don’t make what a BART janitor makes, all fully taxpayer subsidized.
What does a private business do with excess inventory? Put it on sale.
Sell the $11 cards for $8.
Melvin Udall’s description applies directly to government: no reason and no accountability.
“When the Celtics were winning championships in the 80s you couldnt get near the city on Parade Day. “

Bird...Parrish...McHale...DJ....what a team.And Johnny Most too! When they left my interest in the NBA went to zero.
Robert Parrish came to the ER where I was working once looking for his wife,who was having a baby.I can't recall if the merger of Peter Bent Brigham and Boston Lying In was complete then so we would have either directed him to "The Tower" (just recently completed) or to BLI on Longwood Ave.
I wanna tell ya...he was one big fella!
I had business phone dealings with “The Chief”-—he was a VERY nice guy.
FYI-— I was born at BLI.:-)
