While billionaire tech titans have been sparring over Twitter over how to
fix the homeless problem plaguing San Francisco, voters will be the ones
with the real power come this November.

A new proposed business tax called Proposition C to help curb the city’s homelessness epidemic will be on the ballot for San Francisco voters on
Nov. 6.

The new tax would require businesses with over $50 million in gross
receipts to pay a tax of less than 1 percent and those with over $1
billion in gross annual receipts to pay tax of 1.5 percent to fund housing
and homelessness services throughout the city.

The new ordinance could generate close to $300 million annually beginning
in 2019 for the city’s efforts in aiding its homelessness crisis.

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff has strongly endorsed the new tax, even
pledging up to $2 million to support it.

If you're going to fight a relatively small tax, which is one half of one percent to help our number 1 issue, then you better prepared to talk about
what you are doing versus what you don't want to do. ?@OurHomeSF? Vote Yes

Last week, Benioff tweeted that, “Homelessness is all of our
responsibility which is why we are supporting Prop C. Together, as one San Francisco, we can take on our city’s most complex & difficult problems. As
SF’s largest employer we recognize we are part of the solution.”

But others aren’t so convinced. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey has publicly
supported officials such as San Francisco Mayor London Breed, who argue
that the proposition lacks accountability and could make the homelessness situation worse.

“By dramatically increasing our homelessness spending without working with neighboring counties, Proposition C could put us in the untenable and
expensive position of funding services for residents from other counties,” Breed said in a statement earlier this month.

She added that San Francisco cannot solve this problem by simply writing a large check, but they need to work with neighboring counties and
leadership in Sacramento “to bring new state, and ideally federal, money
to the table.”

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, there are currently more than
7,000 people living on the streets in San Francisco.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.

ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its supporters can dispute that.

Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
