Proximity to the San Gabriele mountains causes stupidity and they should therefore be eliminated.

Take Pasadena for example. Pasadena has a 1% tax on all improvements to commercial buildings. That’s right, choose to spruce up the landscape, major upgrade, minor upgrade, makes no difference. The city issues a 1% blight tax to discourage all property owners from improving their property.

And such self-righteousness about minutiae, if you can call it that. More like self-righteousness about….. HUH? What planet is this “vet” on anyway as you point out. And oh yeah, that VetVoices non-profit also feels very strongly and is very concerned about climate change, too, don’t forget. Talk about The Onion…. I don’t even know what to say or think about this kind of nonsense anymore. Good thing you do. FIVE cheers and hooray too for Calwatchdog.
