no billionaire is going to fix san francisco by funneling more money into black hole non-profits or government coffers. our crises are systemic, and political, and created by policy. fund local candidates who aren’t insane, or watch your city die. these are your choices.https://twitter.com/hknightsf/status/1338866041271644168 …

the thing small businesses in SF most need right now is the ability to open, which again comes down to policy

That's a red herring. What gets people back into stores is controlling the pandemic. Look at the data. Look at the economic research. https://www.nber.org/digest/aug20/consumers-fear-virus-outweighs-lockdowns-impact-business …pic.twitter.com/WdF9HaeaHH
