Take care of these poor people on the boat and let them get back to living normal lives once they recover. I can't wait for President Trump to bail out the too-big-to-fail cruise companies this year

Apparently Donald has been resisting allowing the cruise ship to come into port in order to drive down infection numbers. It's completely immoral, and stupid. So on brand.

MarcusSA posted:Big deal with what exactly? I'll rephrase and try to be clear. Why are people freaking out about this specific ship docking when there are already breakouts of the virus all over the bay area? The virus is already among us and these people are contained so what is the special threat that they pose?

Besides my flippant comment I don't see anyone panicking itt. If there are people concerned, it's probably because cruise ships have been a major vector in Japan and Cambodia and could be here too. But like you say, we already have an outbreak on our hands.

What about a dude who vocally supports reparations and a climate agenda, and is in favor of ending capital punishment, cash bail, mandatory minimum sentences, and private prisons? Who wants to mandate paper ballots, subsidize rent, overturn Citizens United, end offshore drilling and oil/gas leases on federal land, create a constitutional right to clean water, and create a wealth tax? Yes he still sucks and I'm aware of his sordid past. But he ran a way better, more progressive campaign than Harris did and on that merit I'd prefer him.

Frankly I'd prefer to not have to vote for a billionaire or a cop, as I can imagine also goes for most of the thread. So maybe we can hold off on slap fighting over which is the lesser evil unless we actually get presented with said dilemma.

speaking of which, i lost track of this question:Spazzle posted:Does anyone have substantive objections to Weiner, or are the complaints I see just boomer moaning about how he is working to increase housing density? his record as a state senator is pretty clear: he's not pro-density, he's pro-real-estate-industry and anti-tenant. but we can also look back to his incredibly lovely career on the board of supervisors. here's what one moderate local organization had to say on the occasion of him running for state senate in 2016: quote:Although Wiener has been okay on some issues like Muni, biking, and nightlife, we have fundamental philosophical differences with him.

Kill Bristol posted:hell yeah let's get more livable california friendly pols in office His opponent for the general wants to introduce a bill to spend $100 Billion on public housing over the next 10 years, increase density requirements in wealthy zip codes and neuter abilities for wealthy zip codes to block new housing, and tie housing requirements to increased number of jobs when commercial projects are approved, focused first on the city then the region. Livable California is not gonna like her. She was also homeless herself 6 months ago, living out of a van, despite being a lecturer at SF State, so she also wants to institute New York State's law that if cities won't build enough homeless shelter beds for their homeless population, that they have to put them up in hotels at the city's cost in order to force cities to start taking care of the problem. Jackie Fielder is veeeeerrry much not Livable California friendly.

Everything but tying housing to commercial seems alright. San Francisco has been California’s center of business since time immemorial, and tying commercial construction to residential construction just results in more of the SV suburban campuses that are the real urban planning Devil. With enough transit infrastructure, it’s only to have lots of workers who don’t live there.

I can’t remember if you’re an ex-mod, but IMO if your post wishes death on major political figures, you should reconsider. Lowtax has already had enough police visits for a lifetime.
