by Joe B. First I though of call it "No Care" Newsom" I’m not saying it takes a lot be a Kennedy it does the problem is it takes more than a member of a family dynasty, running for office, or making memorable speeches. It takes going against public opinion, friends, and family to do what one knows is right, decent, and lawful. The unjust laws are fought until they are corrected takes sacrifice and inner fortitude weathering ideological storms. Shining new-penny-Newsom looks every bit the part of hero-knight for a brand new 21st century minus a war, jail time which can be an asset if it was in protest against unjust situations that required civil disobedience. Sup. Gavin’s Newsom’s "Cash-less Society for houseless and working poor would work if... "There Were Enough Shelter’s That Were Safely Run That Homeless, Working Poor People Single or Families Could Trust and Case Management. This "No-cash because they’ll spend it on drugs and alcohol" is a bunch of cowchips and stinks to high heaven. First of all the population has changed drastically, and though many see poor folks on the streets, in alleys, doorways the vast majority are working at low wage jobs or on work-fare which means they work 20 or less hours a week for a check. Did you know all work-fare workers sign a contract and if not should be equal to salaried workers? There was a time not to long ago workfare folk were not considered but the POWER workers People Organized to Win Employment Rights tried to fix some of that. Now Newsom in an agenda driven, cynical political power politics is using New York’s supposedly model to "help poor folks" get to work. "If the Cost Of Living kept up with the economic the people working years ago would still be working not out on the street out of a job, and working two-three minimum wage jobs aint cutting it anywhere in America. Its not completely useless this plan Newsom has all it needs is a little high tech tweaking, but for right now it’ll create more homeless persons and families. Meanwhile Newsom’s Kennedy - mask is askew. I’ve not met a Kennedy yet, maybe I never will but what Mr. (I mean)Supervisor Gavin Newsom’s pet project to propel him into the Mayor’s throne is as anti-Kennedy as one can get, while the K’s fight to spread freedom internationally. Newsom’s looks to take from the very people with less curtailing and criminalizing and blamed for the economic slump, low tourism turnout. When all of us know larger things have happened than sleeping and peeing in public though if most of the empty houses, warehouses, and newly constructed office buildings were turned to shelters with kitchens, medical/psychological help and Job/Skills also career centers instead of take-shake down-poor folk-rip off of funds and not guaranteed to go to Non Profits services that help the poor. All this for stealth runs for Mayor. Why not use his own money or is it easier to take from people already with little money as it is for a grab-all-you can campaign. I wonder, if I was a rich guy or woman and either made my millions by hard eared work or had a trust fund to live on. If I do nothing but lay around pools, ski in Switzerland, or do nothing am I a bum? Because one has no money problems am I a bum? On the other hand if I have no dough, live on the street, live free in a shelter am I a bum? If I’m on work-fare earning my e two checks on the 1st and the 15th of the month or the once a month $279 check am I still a bum? Rich folks I believe know the answer to having money, enjoying it and doing nothing especially if their parents or other relatives gave it to them. I’d like to know the difference of being a poor bum and being a rich one. Bye… |
