Hire more democrats for city hall. /s
They better figure it out because their state is broke and trump isn’t going to save them
When a city goes bankrupt every elected official in city government should be forced to resign and not run for one term.
i’m guessing that the overtime crisis is because they can’t attract qualified cops and firefighters who know they won’t be supported by the administration of this shithole city ...
Plans to pay out Reparations are hardest hit...
So, they go under.
WHO would take them over, maybe the Chinese?
Have to remember that in addition to being a crap-hole it is also a PORT!
I’ll just suggest more than forty California cities on the same path, and half of them will be asking the state for help by the end of 2025. If you are a retired state/local employee...best be prepared for half of your pension to go away.
Oakland crime is out of control, so city spends money on recycling inspectors.
Peoples Republik of Kalifornia at its best!
Have your officials who sent you into bankruptcy make up the difference from their own pockets. They created. Otherwise, FO.
The constant stream of federal money to prop up blue states esp kali is coming to an end, and that has been the only thing propping kali.
All pensions 19,535,321 records found
While voters have been dazzled with "look, a squirrel," behind the scenes this has been going on for years and years.
Imagine my shock that a city run by corrupt Democrats has money problems.
They can balance the budget by leasing the city to China for a while.
The crime rate would go way down....a miracle.
“Not coincidentally, the spike in crime started right after Oakland voted to defund the police in 2021 but cutting $17 million from the budget. “
Hire English majors next time. Or run it through AI
China would allow the crime to go even higher because they don’t have to deal with it. Think of it as being like an outhouse. When the hole gets full, you move the outhouse then all you have is a hole full of shiite. Eventually, it becomes dirt. Businesses leave and the only thing left is the criminals. They prey on each other until they leave. Then comes the “gaytrification”.
It seems that the lib cities are doing everything possible to commit suicide.
