The Voice of Libertarianism and the Austrian School of Economics and true Free Market Anarchism known as anarcho-capitalism. Thank you for all those wonderful articles and op-eds and books. The enemy of Statism and crony-capitalism. Quote: " Taxation represents coercive theft on a grand scale."
This is how San Francisco worked before it spent more money per resident on government than any other city its size. Try to count the number of things that would get you ticketed or even arrested in San Francisco today, in the name of "public safety." I lost count around 100. And yet not a single accident.
Freedom is beautiful.

Timed to coincide with the start of the 2010 legislative session, the CalWatchdog project (www.calwatchdog.com) is designed to provide investigative coverage of the state’s increasingly dysfunctional government and to provide enterprising news reports that often are overlooked by other media--especially in a time of cutbacks in state Capitol coverage by struggling newspapers. We also provide timely commentary and original political cartoons.
California voters will see a ballot measure in June 2010 seeking approval for a "Top-two Open Primary" system. The measure would make it far more difficult for Californians to vote for any candidates other than incumbents and their best-funded challengers. It would also make it even easier for incumbents to get reelected.
The Worst-Run Big City in the U.S. (and, no, it's not just LPSF who thinks so)

SF Weekly recently ran an article with the subheading "Spend more. Get less. We're the city that knows how." Sounds like something we'd write here on LPSF.org, but it's an honest-to-goodness article printed on lots of dead trees...
"Despite its good intentions, San Francisco is not leading the country in gay marriage. Despite its good intentions, it is not stopping wars. Despite its spending more money per capita on homelessness than any comparable city, its homeless problem is worse than any comparable city's. Despite its spending more money per capita, period, than almost any city in the nation, San Francisco has poorly managed, budget-busting capital projects, overlapping social programs no one is certain are working, and a transportation system where the only thing running ahead of schedule is the size of its deficit."
Proposition G — the chain-store-killer ballot measure — continues to fell retailers interested in opening in San Francisco.
As Frederic Bastiat said there is that which is seen and that which is unseen. The unseen when Propostion G passed was the loss of jobs for residents and the loss of reveneue for the City to "protect" neighborhood businesses
