Pretty quiet for a railroad
If an employer ever asked me to forego pay "just until things get better", I'm walking out the door. That was your notice right there, bub.— October 29, 2015 2:40 p.m.
Close down Crawford High immediately
I'm going to go ahead and guess that these are public schools, even with a name like "San Diego Business Leadership School". If they were private, the market would have already shut them down. I will never understand why some people think it's a good idea to form a monopoly, tell all of the people working for the monopoly that they cannot be fired, and then act surprised when the monopoly provides dismal service. We know to a certainty that a free market works. Not perfectly, and not in every single case, but why is it better to drag everyone down to the lowest common denominator and then declare that to be "success"? Yes, with a voucher program, some people will wind up screwed. But with the current system, we're ALL screwed... few if any students are actually able to learn to their full potential, and we all pay far too much for the result we get.— October 28, 2015 8:01 a.m.
Tijuana sex-promotion project goes limp
Why do some people get so worked up over two consenting adults agreeing to exchange sex for money?— October 28, 2015 7:55 a.m.
Chainsaw-carrying maniac par for the course
What a moron.— October 27, 2015 5:13 p.m.
How Comic-Con spectators combat hotel wars
"However, price gouging is a growing concern." I wish people would stop saying "price gouging". There is no such thing. It boils down to, "They're charging more than I'm willing to pay, and that isn't faaaaiiiirrr!" Mark Hidalgo is dead-on when he says he'll charge “the most I can get…. I figured if they're willing to pay, then it's appropriate.” Exactly correct!— October 26, 2015 9:17 a.m.
How Comic-Con spectators combat hotel wars
It's asinine to "hold prices down". Huge demand, limited supply. *RAISE* prices, and you get rid of the shortages and the crashed web sites and everything being gone in three minutes. I have no idea why any hotel would "work with" Comicon... if I owned a downtown hotel, I'd charge $350 a night and see what happened.— October 26, 2015 9:14 a.m.
Heywood does more convention center math
And how much does John Moores stand to make if a new convention center is built on land he owns? How much would he be willing to pay to make that happen? I'm seeing no need to expand the Convention Center. Comicon is one event for a few days. Frankly, they need to raise their prices, not try to cram another 50,000 people in. There is zero economic justification for catering to them... it's "big", but does not bring in big money. Certainly not enough to justify an enormous expansion project.— October 26, 2015 9:12 a.m.
Castle Park schools besieged by age
There are ALWAYS "school construction bonds" on the ballot. They always pass. But we always need MORE. Where does the money go?— October 23, 2015 2:29 p.m.
Fatality at La Jolla Indian Reservation

Bill Horn and the life east of the 15
Why is it that "his neighbors didn't vote for him" is relevant when we're talking about a Republican; but if I say I didn't vote for a Democrat, it's always "Well, you aren't the only voice! You have to compromise! The people have spoken!"?— October 22, 2015 11:15 a.m.
