We endorse Dr Richard Fox
California 16th Congressional (seat now held by Anna Eschoo, Big Pharma favorite)
Dr. Fox is the most libertarian major candidate for any office in the area.
He has placed 2nd in the past. If he finishes 1st or 2nd in a multi-field of candidates,
it may be a run off between Dr Fox and Cong. Eshoo in November

We endorse Reinette Senum
Governor, California
Reinette understands how corrupt politicians and bureaucrats have cooperated in with special interests and misguided zealots to enact policies which have only resulted in the deterioration of personal freedom, safety, and culture.
She is articulate, energetic, knows the issues, the source of the problems, and the pathway to solutions.
Somewhat libertarian, learning, listens.
Former Mayor of Nevada City, she has seen and experienced the realities of how things “work” today.
Running as Independent, not beholden to political party directions and management.

"The government’s business ends at our skin. The government should never restrict, coerce, or mandate a medical intervention or treatment. Californians have the right to be informed of all treatment options – along with the respective risks and benefits – and whatever decision they make for themselves or their children must be honored and respected. The patient and doctor/medical practitioner relationship is sacred and must be respected.”
"For many years, California businesses have been overtaxed and overregulated. For the last two years, the government has severely restricted California’s businesses while conveniently ignoring the countless consequences of these restrictions. We must turn this around. We need to reduce business taxes, business fees, and red tape.”
"Californians must be able to afford to live in California. The ever-increasing cost of living has more Californians living in poverty than any other state. We must:
Shore up California’s finances: Conduct rigorous and certified financial and operational audits on the State of California.
Rebuild the local and regional businesses.
Reduce California’s income and corporate taxes.
Reduce land-use regulations to allow for more affordable housing.
Eliminate the gas tax.
Expand California’s Infrastructure Bank to include providing low-interest loans to mom and pop businesses, Main Street businesses, and small to large scale manufacturing.
End AB5 (which has harmed independent contractors and set off a supply chain disaster and subsequent rise in the cost of goods)
Politicians should never determine who works and who does not."
"The issue in California is not a lack of state funds, but rather the misuse of funds, compounded by a lack of transparency as to where tax dollars go. We need certified audits of state expenditures to prevent hard-earned dollars from being usurped from our businesses and citizens with little to no benefit for them. Once we clean up California’s accounting, it’ll be time for a wholesale reduction of taxes in the state, and that includes considering the pros and cons to ending the income tax.”
The other person is my partner ("spouse"). This person told me they're too busy, just fill out my ballot for me voting the same way you did, and I'll sign the envelope. Easy enough.
If somebody isn't well enough educated about issues, they should sit out the vote,
California's so fucked up but it's still a wonderful place to live.
The question is which side of the hot-crazy line she is on. California is 9 hot and 9 crazy. Maybe "dating" material, in the sense of still living here.
It WAS an interesting place to live. My bet, is you've never lived anywhere else.
I grew up in a tiny town in Northern NY, went to college in Buffalo, then to Indiana, then Boston, then Boulder Colorado, then Silly Con Valley.
then to Indiana, then Boston
CA is a huge state. Plenty of nice places to live no matter whether you have seen the rest of the world or not
There's a danger in being "well educated", people equate that as being "smart".
I am starting to view the people I live among as sheep.
This used to be a place of rebels, THINKING rebels. Now it's conformist deadwood.
I understand the contempt the supposed "elite" have. All they have is say stick a spoon up your asshole, and that will protect you from our made up pandemic, and 99% of the population will do it.
The mainstream population is so gullible, so naive, no matter HOW MANY TIMES they've been lied to, they still follow. It's no wonder they see them as subhuman.
Maybe an extra dimension would do on that representation, something about "roots".
I've considered moving back to the two places I grew up in, just to be near relatives and things from my childhood. But I can't quite do it.
Dude, I was here when you were still in diapers. The "tech" world that you cite is a spinoff of the aerospace defense industry, super-conformist. I was fortunate to straddle my working years as an engineer in that millieu and the millieu that you wrote of as your Good Old Days.
OK, so here we are. What are you going to do about it?
I am blessed (or, lucky for you atheists) to be one of the 30 or so percent of people who can donate. Maybe save a life.
Lots of volunteer time with The Health Trust. Yes, I know, I am helping sheep. But in my own little way I am doing my own little thing to make a little difference. I can bitch and moan and complain and belittle others but it won't make any difference, except to make me miserable.
You've been here long enough, you have grown your own roots here. Maybe not roots others planted before you like cousins or whatever, but your own roots. Your friends, your spouse's etc. Some folks including me have shared on other threads that we're compelled to be Remainers for this sort of reason.
I'm at a loss just as you are.
One of my coworkers "respectfully disagreed" about my reasoning about masking and getting a shot - they just disagreed, they couldn't explain why.

richwicks saysI'm at a loss just as you are.
I am not at a loss, homie.
If I cannot help others, even clueless sheeple that you expressed contempt for, then I have no purpose here.
Who gives a sh*t about what we do at work? Someone else will fill those workplace milestones if we aren't the warm bodies filling those roles.
It's not about Judgement Day or whatever. It's personal integrity / ethics.
My home county, Alameda, has just imposed a mask mandate on the basis of what, at this point, should be considered pseudoscience.

Mask mandates don’t work. As governor, I will disallow them, end covid vax mandates, & end the state of emergency.https://t.co/GWcjJWUu3n
This area was really once a total meritocracy. NOBODY gave a fuck about your personal life, it was exclusively "can you solve this problem?" Didn't matter if the person was straight, gay, male, female, whatever - can you solve this problem? Work life was ENTIRELY divorced from performance.
It WAS an interesting place to live. My bet, is you've never lived anywhere else.
Tomorrow is an important day: Tuesday, June 7, 2022.
Tomorrow is the primary for the 25th Congressional District of (Southern) California where Dr. Brian Tyson is running.
What else needs to be said about Brian. He was one of the doctors who stepped up to save perhaps hundreds of lives in Southern California by not giving in to medical nihilism during the pandemic. I suspect that between his own patients, and the leadership he exhibited in getting the word out about early treatment, he is responsible for saving thousands of lives, suffering for many more, and also millions of dollars worth of invaluable medical resources.
His clinics have now treated at least 11,000 patients with (last I heard) just 4 hospitalizations and 0 deaths among those who were treated during the first few days of symptoms. Brian was always willing to share his time with all those asking questions—even while he was enjoying vacation on Independence Day.
Please share this with your friends in Southern California who can cast a vote for Dr. Tyson. Our nation needs a rock to stand firm while sorting out the aftermath of the pandemic medical fiasco.
Californians for School Choice
Patrick --
In our last email message, we sent a list of candidates who have indicated their support for the Educational Freedom Act Initiative, being advanced by the California School Choice Foundation.
Since this email went out, several other candidates have been anxious to make their support for the EFA known. They are the following:
Angela Jacobs Underwood, Lieutenant Governor
James Shoemaker, CD9
Jeff Gorman, CD19
Mike Maher, CD21
Rudy Melendez, CD29
Bill Spinney, CD39
Lori Mills, AD42
These lists are designed to do one thing only – to inform you of a candidate’s support for School Choice. While we are a non-partisan operation, we want you to know about candidates who align with your values.

As Californians vote in primaries today, it’s a recall race in San Francisco grabbing most of the attention. Chesa Boudin has become the face of the group of progressive prosecutors who have overseen rising crime in major American cities. If he is booted out in perhaps America’s most liberal city, the message on the dangers of a lax approach to law and order will surely be loud enough to penetrate the Democratic echo changer. (Read Gilbert T. Sewall on the recall race on our site.) Victory for the recall campaign will encourage those running a similar effort to oust LA’s progressive prosecutor, George Gascón. And it might even cause others from the same movement overseeing growing lawlessness in cities like Philadelphia and Chicago to consider a change in direction.
In Los Angeles, Rick Caruso looks to be finding some success with a cunning strategy to win as a big city Republican. Step one: change your party registration to Democrat (which Caruso did a few years ago). Step two: make the most of the fact you are a billionaire by outspending your competitors by several orders of magnitude. Step three: Get famous people to endorse you. Elon Musk, Kim Kardashian and Katy Perry are just some of the A-listers touting the property-developer-turned-politician’s candidacy. Let’s see if it works.

It's also easy to get emails or to mute emails from this thread with the "watch" link above.
