San Diego’s home-price recovery isn’t what it seems
Isn't the "private sector greed" also responsible for the "bad fiscal policy" as our Leaders cave-in to their Large Supporters? ==================== Large Supporters= Special Interests And yes, that is the problem/s— October 2, 2010 11:01 p.m.

San Diego City Hall's OneSD Program at $37 Million and Counting
Where are all these numbers they are giving us, like for Prop D coming from? ============== Out of KFC Sanders butt.............they are all bogus. Coming from the mayor whose election platform was not to raise the sales tax.....— October 2, 2010 7:14 p.m.
San Diego City Hall's OneSD Program at $37 Million and Counting
The One$D $ystem, I FEAR, is just more "Monkey Business" designed to delay as long as possible the City going Bankrupt! ============= We should have filed 4 years ago-then the tobacco settlement money would not have gone down the pensioon black hole............ COMPLETE WASTE OF $100 MILLION, AND HERE WE ARE 2 YEARS LATER WITH PROP D!!! Seeking hundreds of millions more-and in 2 years they will want to pass an even higher sales tax....— October 2, 2010 7:13 p.m.

The firefighter who goes into a burning home to rescue a resident is a hero. So is a member of the police force who risks taking gunfire to save someone. ============ Those are indeed legit hero's. I think the LAPD cops in the 1997 North Hollywood B of A bank robbery shoot out- with the much heavily armed dual bank robbers- are what I would call hero's. All of them. I will always have that image of the LAPD SWAT team rolling up on the last bank robber, who was armed with a fully automatic AK-47 with a 100+ round clip in it, and just unleashing hundreds of rounds (from both the LAPD and the bank robber) within a matter of seconds..... with glass and bullet holes all over the truck the robber was carjacking, as well as the LAPD car. Now those guys TRULY put their life on the line. I find it amazing, to this day, that no one was killed in that shoot out except the bank robbers (BTW-the guy in the shorts is the SWAT team commander, he just retired from the LAPD last week); http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejD1Gml-ZGc .— October 2, 2010 4:53 p.m.

Based on the Jan 2010 population estimate of 1.35 million and a $2.91 billion budget, that's roughly $2200 per resident being spent to “run” San Diego. ======== That is an eye popping number, given it is JUST the City, not including County or State servicing costs- I wonder what the cost would be if SDUSD were included?? Bump it by 50% I bet.— October 2, 2010 4:39 p.m.

Thanks for pointing out the obvious. Even though the Pupster open the door wide enough to drive a Mack truck through, I won't sink to his level of sniping. ========= Are you for real JustClueless??? You're already in the cellar, always have been. PS, I'm not worried about you driving a Mac truck, in fact I would bet you would have trouble navigating a go-kart!— October 2, 2010 4:36 p.m.
Meg Whitman, Jerry Brown, or Someone Else?
Brown is what, 70?? 72???.....I agree that there is a very strong possibility he will not be the person/patsy the public unions think he will be if elected. In fact as a lame duck who is not going to be looking at ANY office after this election there is a good chance BROWN may be the one to fix the pension mess, not Whitman. I know one thing, Whitman's plan for the pensions (we won't even go into pay scales) is NOT going to work when she is exempting the biggest absuers of the system-public safety. You cannot have employees "retiring" at age 50, or 55, or even 60 with 90% of their highest years pay (which is near $100K) and then living another 20-30 or even 40 years, doesn't work and is unsustainable.— October 2, 2010 11:27 a.m.
Meg Whitman, Jerry Brown, or Someone Else?
RE: "Since the unions are what's breaking California, I'd say Brown would be pretty bad." Make sure you qualify this as the PUBLIC unions, which are monopolies with no competition - and should be outlawed under the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. Private sector unions compete, and if they ask for or receive more than the market will accept they go out of business and no more private sector union. I have no problems with private sector unions, but BIG problems with public sector unions.— October 2, 2010 11:20 a.m.
