We have had a month and a half of unseasonably cloudy weather in San Francisco.
I've begun hearing the suggestion that the City is cursed for its terrible politics. The list of people who are cursing the City is long and that has become a game.
People who are cursing San Francisco:
poor people who can't live here because stores they shop in are banned like WalMart, Target, Home Depot and Applebees;
people who smoke who are banned from every possible venue including outdoor beaches, parks and golf courses; stores are rapidly being banned from selling cigarettes.
people who own cars and want to buy or rent living space because the City limits garage space to a small fraction of dwelling units;
shoppers who are banned from using durable plastic bags at grocery stores;
former tourists who loved San Francisco but won't return because abundant homeless beggars are frightening;
emergency care workers who quit ambulance, fire and hospital work because foul smelling, perpetual bums are the dominant users of emergency services;
hundreds of thousands of workers who saw their corporations, founded in San Francisco, driven out of the city; over 50 the past years;
The list is endless, but we all seem to enjoy putting our pet complaint on the list.
