Re: “The blame game

The Teachers union, demands they go on strike for higher wages and large benefits. Yes, I blame the Teachers for bowing to the "thuggish", corrupt, thieving, burden on society that are unions.

The union president won't be found on the picket line, demanding more and higher union dues. Right, Michael?

Thank you, for acknowledging a good comment :)

Re: “The 'me too district': Lucia Mar Unified has been calling itself that for years due to the across-the-board raises it gives staff, faculty, and administrators

"Equity" is currently a very leftist/liberal pillar of social justice. Equality be damned. Merit be damned too.

Curious, how you never see, or hear, of Teachers going on strike for more school supplies. However, you do always hear them weeping that they must pay for school supplies out of their own pockets, or "the children" will not have enough or any, and that's why they go on strike for higher paychecks and benefits.

Ahh. But school supplies do not pay union dues, and there's your pillar of "equity".

Re: “Community choice energy is a scam

I was accused of not knowing that 3CE "created the energy" they sell, and PG&E only transmits it. I was also accused of not knowing that instead of 2 power bills, I would only get 1 now, because 3CE is the sole power provider. Which is strange, how 3CE uses PG&E letterhead on my power bills.

Mr. Henry is 100% correct. There is NOTHING cheap, nor green, about so-called alternative energy. You want safe, plentiful energy to power your environmentally damaging electric cars and trucks for the next 50 to 100 years? Build more nuclear plants. 50 acres of 24/7/365 power, is a heck of a lot better than 300,000 acres buried beneath solar panels.

Re: “County rejects plan to subdivide SLO synagogue property

Do not worry, Mr. Rourke! The city/county will take you to court, sue you, drag you through the mud, destroy your future earnings, and take your land. After you are gone, they will arrive at a brilliant plan to subdivide the land into four 2.5-acre parcels, one 20-acre parcel with the synagogue, one 6-acre parcel for a low-income residence and a possible mixed-use development, and two larger parcels of 20 and 36 acres. They will call this "progress" and "innovative", and "revolutionary", so they can claim they stopped a visual blight of the city, as people drive in on LOVR. No doubt, that pesky church place will also be targeted for taking up too much valuable city/county property.

I mean, it worked for the Dalidio ranch. Right, Mzzzz Mulholland?

Re: “SLO's plan for a new parking structure and arts district is ill-conceived

The old SLO Jr High gymnasium, is more than adequate to house the SLO Rep venue, and would be affordable to alter the building into a state of the art stage and theatre. Plenty of parking, water and power already established. Also, there is the Principals office if you're bad.

And...no worry about destroying old SLO historical homes in the process.

Re: “Another one bites the dusty parking lot

The homeless at the camp should all ride bicycles. That way, the city would never even think of bothering them...
