    For me it is the government wasting time on things that are not an actual problem and ignoring things that are.
    They ignore the big problems because they do not have the courage to address them and instead occupy themselves with stupid trivia:
    Ignoring the homeless blighting cities, and wasting time making the Date Shake the official state milk shake.
    Yup.

    So glad to hear you're not supporting Comer Pyle and Gym Jordan's efforts and will be voting for Biden.

    You nailed it, brother -- we have become a nation that forces something like a woman's control over her own body to have to be elevated to the Supreme Court! Insane!

    Meanwhile, as you suggest, the Supreme Court drags its feet on making a ruling on the rights of local cities and counties to force homeless bums to obey the municipal, county, and state laws of the local taxpayers!

    Both of those things should be 'no-brainers'! A woman should automatically have the absolute right to control everything on, or inside her own body... period. And local governments should have the absolute right to arrest or expel 'campers' and any others who spread diseases, trash public property, commit crimes, plus pissing and ******** in our parks and waterways, and making a filthy, crime-ridden ****ED-UP MESS out of everything they touch!

    My newest car has under the body courtesy lights, AKA in California as "Poop lights".

    It is amazing we have reached the point where stepping in human crap is just another inconvenience. It was not that long ago that for health reasons, spitting on the sidewalk was illegal to stop the spread of tuberculosis, today it's "drop & squat".

    "Tuberculosis (TB) cases in California have been increasing since 2020, with a 15% increase in 2023 compared to 2022. This is the highest year-over-year increase since 1989." Link: https://www.sacbee.com/news/california/article286932645.html

    I think an argument could be made that the greatest danger to public health and well-being in California is GAVIN NEWSOM!

    Can you explain how you feel corporations buying up more and more of the properties as well as price fixing on rentals and new construction is the fault of government?

    The only thing I might can think of is zoning laws
