BOS is reaching into your wallet!
“Time to wake up, voters”
In spite of a $6.6 billion budget — bigger than that of 20 states — our supervisors again are poised to raid the pockets of city residents, this time making it even more of a financial burden for middle-class families to visit Golden Gate Park because of new parking meters.
If the voters in this town ever come to their senses, they will stop electing the professional poverty pimps and victim vendors to the Board of Supervisors who keep wasting hundreds of millions of dollars on out-of-town vagrants, panhandlers, etc. Instead, they will start electing pragmatic problem solvers who focus on basic city services for residents. Otherwise, the voters of San Francisco have nobody else to blame but themselves for this kind of nonsense.
