With medieval conditions in California, Gov. Newsom looks back to the old Poor Laws
|
[American Thinker] California was once called "the Golden State." It has a mellow climate; its agricultural industry was "the fruit basket of America"; San Francisco was "the City that Knows How"; Los Angeles was the "City of Dreams"; and the Sierra mountain range, one of the most beautiful in the world, was a summer and winter pleasure paradise. That's the California in which I grew up.
The current California isn't quite so nice. The climate is still lovely, but the agricultural industry has been struggling because of environmental concerns over the Delta Smelt, a small fish.
Regularly occurring droughts, which are part of California's natural cycle, are proving devastating, mostly because California has refused to upgrade its water system in the last 60 years, even as the population almost doubled. The new plan is to limit people to 55 gallons a day, which gives them a choice on many days between cleaning their clothes and cleaning themselves.
Punishing taxes and regulations routinely drive businesses (AKA employers) out of the state.
Those are all bad things, but what people really know about California today is that it has a homeless problem ‐ 156,000 homeless people, to be specific. Tucker Carlson spent a week looking at the way in which San Francisco, once one of the world's most beautiful cities, has seen its quality of life collapse under the weight of the homeless. Los Angeles has vast tent cities that have become breeding grounds for medieval disease, while Sacramento is overrun with rats.
But fear not! Governor Gavin Newsom has a plan. He wants to amend the California constitution to mandate that all cities and counties must provide housing and shelter enough for every homeless person within the region:
