You mean it's sorta like a buncha poor bitches whining about someone richer than themselves and not being taxed enough?

You can avoid the worrying...........until you can no longer afford to live there, of course

You love your kings, don't you?

Elon, Jeff, & the rest.

Kings? There's winners and losers. there's success and failure.

For a group of people always criticizing winners and the wealthy and royalty........you guys sure love your politicians/royalty. And THEY are supposed to be servants?

I wanted Hillary. 
She wasn't actually a career politician elected to office like most of them. FLOTUS isn't an elected position.

I wanted Buttigieg. He was the usual local politician moving up the rung. Probably working on becoming a career politician. But not there yet.

Biden was my last choice.

I have been pulling for younger blood for awhile & get accused of ageism.

This is Newsom's 2nd term as governor.  His last since we have term limits on that office. (Brown sneaked in in a technicality as his prior gig in the 80s or whenever was before the term limit rule went thru so it didn't count)

They are saying that shooter in Colorado is the grandson of a local politician. Former Santee mayor. Lost his bid for re-election to the state senate. Compared the January 6th guys to the American Revolution. Big MAGA dude. Speculation is he's the one who pulled strings to seal the bomb threat the kid did last year.

What has she been doing her entire adult life since college? Working in and around political arenas.

So then you know what it's like to not get the candidate you wouldn't have chosen at first........but you can't support the opposition. That's how a lot of people ended up voting for Trump. And then they got surprised by him doing more than either Bush.

If you even consider Newsome for president, you're really flying over the edge. After all those lock downs (except for him and his friends) you'd let this guy run anything?

Haters gonna hate. Color me shocked they'll try to tie it to MAGA     meanwhile Donald Trump was perfectly fine with gays, just ask Dave Rubin and his husband

4th largest economy in the world.

When Newsom took office we were 5th largest 

So Newsom has been good for our economy.
Isn't that your gauge for Donnie?

Voepel is a MAGA.

Voepel at one point aligned himself with the Tea Party movement, saying that the Republican Party was too liberal. Following the January 6 United States Capitol attack, Voepel said, "This is Lexington and Concord. First shots fired against tyranny. Tyranny will follow in the aftermath of the Biden swear in on January 20th."

How fast food got its start in Southern California — and why it's still the fast food capital of the world
Mary Meisenzahl Nov 23, 2022,

Some of the biggest fast food brands in the world started in Southern California in the 20th century.
Car-centered growth of communities around highways and suburbs made fast food and drive-thrus a perfect business model.
Drive-ins gave way to drive-thrus, which are dominant across fast food today.

Fast food has been deeply intertwined with Southern California since its inception.

McDonald's, Taco Bell, In-N-Out, Del Taco, Jack in the Box, and many other chains all have their roots in the area.

Taco Bell, Chipotle, and others are still headquartered there.

Bob Wian opened the first Bob's Big Boy in Glendale, California in 1936.

Wian was also credited with creating the double burger, now a fast food staple.

Wian had some experience with serving customers in their cars from his time at Kirby's Pig Stand, which had carhops, in Texas.

Bob's Big Boy had drive-ins for customers in cars, a precursors to drive-thrus.

In 1940, the McDonald's brother first opened McDonald's Bar-B-Q drive-in in San Bernardino in 1940.

Later that decade, the first In-N-Out opened in Baldwin Park.

That same year, McDonald's became up a walk-up burger restaurant.

By 1955, Ray Kroc was involved as the franchising agent, and he started the McDonald's System, the predecessor to the McDonald's Corporation.

Del Taco and Taco Bell, still competitors today, opened within a year of each other in 1960 and 1961.

The two restaurants broke from the hamburgers and french fries mold of fast food at the time to sell burritos and tacos.

At the same time, these restaurants were growing and expanding, the US was building its massive highway system.

American life was redesigned around car culture, and Americans wanted convenient food stops that fit into that life, according to author and journalist Adam Chandler.

Southern California in particular grew based on cars, which enabled suburban housing tracts, malls, and fast-food restaurants to emerge.

Southern California boomed with money as a national leader in aircraft and automobile production and other defense spending.

A car-centered culture, spending money for leisure, and a growing demand for fast and efficient food made a perfect storm for fast food to start, poising the industry to grow through the rest of the world.

Southern California was primed to develop drive-thrus, which make up about 75% of fast food industry sales today.

But businesses are fleeing California!

EBT, or Electronic Benefit Transfer, is the way food stamps and other benefits are distributed to those who qualify. An EBT card works like a debit card, allowing the cardholder to purchase approved food items at participating retailers.

In order to use an EBT card, the cardholder must first have their card loaded with funds. This can be done by going to an approved EBT retailer and asking to have their benefits transferred onto the card. Once the funds have been loaded, the card can be used like a debit card anywhere that accepts EBT payments.


Not all retailers accept EBT payments, but there are many popular fast food restaurants that do. Some of the most popular fast food options that accept EBT include McDonald’s, Burger King, Wendy’s, Taco Bell, KFC, and Subway. Most grocery stores also accept EBT payments, so it’s easy to find a place to use your benefits no matter where you are.
