13 of the 28 restrooms at Mission Bay Park are closing indefinitely. Why? To save $550K/yr and help close the city’s $100M+ structural deficit.

Despite generating over $40M annually, Mission Bay Park is only guaranteed about 33% of the funds which can only be used for capital projects. The rest of the funds go to other regional parks (17%) and the city’s general fund (50%).

So the city could’ve used a portion of the general fund allocation to keep all of the restrooms open, but instead chose to continue floating a very bureaucratic organization with excessive personnel.

There’s no greater example of this than city council office staffing which increased approx 40 X faster than population growth over the past five years and now represents an additional $10M in annually expenditures.

If the council would’ve reduced their staff to 2021 levels, all of the restrooms could’ve remained, arts funding gap fully funded and filled a pot hole or two.

It simply comes down to priorities.

@CBSMATTGUTMAN What is the point of this report? Mammal flesh?! Really? Is that what we are calling food now? This is a tragedy, yes, there are concerns that need to be mitigated, but please don't try to create news, just report the news.

if @elonmusk paid 100% of his net worth ($1.4 trillion) as a tax it would only cover federal government spending for 77 days. this isn’t a tax problem…

@radar1656 @JoJoFromJerz @Acyn Remember when everyone lost their minds when Obama spent that money? Remember all that uproar on Twitter? No? Oh right that didn't happen.

Already by the 1970s, top energy analysts knew abundant natural gas would displace coal, resulting in lower emissions. And so Malthusian scientists, in order to create their outlandishly apocalyptic scenarios, demonized them as climate deniers and drove them out of the IPCC.

David Sacks: "California collects roughly double per capita what Texas and Florida do… And services got worse, test scores got worse, crime prevention got worse, they let convicts out of jails. Everything's gotten worse."

Two things are happening. First, the ineptocracy has taken over government in California, it’s now rooted in the system. Second, there’s an almost religious fervor or addiction to seeing absurd policies through, and a failure to admit defeat. They prop these failures up with federal money shuffled through the ineptocracy in an effort to justify more insanity. It’s sport for many of the career politicians. They are so disconnected from their constituents they have no purpose. Much of it is rooted in alarmism, and they fundraise on fear, guilt, and suicidal empathy.

@RichardPBailey_ Pretty much says it all!

[SD Taxpayers @sdcta]

At its core, the city of #SanDiego $7.8 infrastucture gap is caused by greater than expected increases in city staffing numbers and pay. The city must sharply reduce personnel expenditures before tax increases are even considered to close the gap.

"The city’s own actuary recently warned that 'doling out pay raises larger than expected has become a recurring theme and a recurring problem for the pension system’s long-term finances,' driven by 'extra salary increases above and beyond assumptions during many of the past seven years.' Pension costs are salary-driven: when pay rises faster than projected, long-term liabilities increase automatically."
