Where the Leftist Central Planners Want to Force Us To Go

While small businesses, including restaurants, were locked down by government force, Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom partied with a group at an expensive restaurant. The California Democrats have decreed gasoline-powered automobiles won't be sold in California in a little over a decade from now, while the state's power infrastructure can't handle current demand for electricity. In the county of Los Angeles, freeways can't handle existing traffic, but the "road fund" is regularly spent on buses, rail, and non-transportation projects and programs.

What the Leftist Democrats are doing in California - which they'd love to take national - might not make sense to someone who has common sense, who doesn't seek to control others. But what the power-hungry social engineering central planners are doing makes sense when you realize what they want, and they've publicly said so and/or demonstrated, is to:
  • Install most of our children into government-controlled institutions from six weeks of age into their twenties.
  • Get those children dependent on government for most of their meals, served at or distributed by the schools.
  • Move most of us into large apartment buildings, especially ones with commercial space on the first level or three.
  • Ensure those apartment units will have water and power controlled and limited by remote, and waste (like the trash you throw away) controlled, limited, and analyzed.
  • Force us out of automobiles we control into government-run mass transit.
  • Discourage entrepreneurship and small businesses so that we're all working for government or large businesses, which can be more easily controlled by government, or dependent on government redistribution of money.
  • Get most of us dependent on the state for health care.
  • Disarm private citizens when it comes to defending themselves, their family, or their property.
We can see this at the state level and with the counties and cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles. They are constantly seeking to make government bigger, more intrusive, and more controlling, and get as many of us dependent on government as they can.

They hate liberty for anyone other than their own little clique.

Resist Leftism. Defeat Leftism. Defend Liberty.

Hand's Off My Son's Penis, San Francisco

San Francisco, and San Francisco Jr. (Santa Monica), are both seriously considering bans on male circumcisions, at least for minors. There are men coming from various worldviews who are strongly against infant male circumcision. There is a high amount of emotion over the issue, as those who defend or encourage it cite religious or health reasons. Witness Gino Hasler of Arleta, who wrote in to the Los Angeles Times, writing against the practice.
This barbaric and sadistic ritual belongs in the Middle Ages and should not be tolerated today.

Then there’s J.M. Samuel of Santa Monica:
It seems to me that there is no difference between outlawing male circumcision, which a group wants to do in Santa Monica, and outlawing abortion. It is another example of people who want to legislate their own morals and impose their will on others concerning an area that should be left to an individual's right to choose.

There's a huge difference. When you circumcise a boy, you cut off skin from his penis. He goes on living. When you abort a boy, you slaughter him, thus murdering him.

So, I wonder if it will still be okay in San Francisco to cut off all of your son's penis, as long as he “feels like a girl"?
