Jason - I will never understand how frustrated you are by these outcomes while you knowingly and vocally support the party that enacts them.

This comment grossly misunderstands SF politics. Local politics in general is usually not D vs R. In SF it’s progressive vs moderate, NIMBY vs YIMBY etc. The moderate DA candidate would have done a much better job fixing this imo, but still a D.

I understand that scaling what doesn’t work in San Francisco, Portland, Chicago, Seattle, Baltimore, NYC and other large blue cities would be completely foolish. The policies just don’t work and have been empirically proven as such by just watching.

The cities you just listed produce more gdp and tax revenue than many red states combined. They deal in various ways with varying degrees of success/failure with unique and difficult sociological problems. What this has to do with your naivete about SF politics I am not sure.

People & businesses are voting with their feet & their balance sheets. Acting like there isn’t a mass exodus from CA to TX and NY to FL isn’t going to solve the problems that now exist in SF. I now live in the state of TX, where a constitutionally mandated balanced budget exists.

I'm actually moving from SF to Austin! So I definitely understand - I'm very frustrated by SF politics. But so are hundreds of thousands of other SF residents. Most of whom are dems!

Well an advanced welcome to Austin and welcome to Texas on behalf of everyone already here. We are hopeful that you enjoy the change, including no state taxes, and that you will consider leaving your CA politics in the Bay Area.
. Safe travels and best of luck with everything.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

Appreciate the welcome, but just like anyone who moves anywhere, my views will move with me. My politics and views are not "CA politics" they are mine. One thing I find strange about Texas is the juxtaposition of the "live free" attitude with the "conform to our views" sentiment

We say that because you aren’t looking in the mirror on your politics. Your justified desire to improve your quality of life is triggering the move here ... directly away from the poor quality of life you currently are having there ... because of your politics.

it’s like everything I’ve said so far has gone right over your head. You seem to view everything as black and white.... the world simply is not such. I disagree with much of the way SF is run so how exactly are my politics responsible? Don’t answer. Would rather end it here.
