Long term, this cannot but help Weatherby. California has not only restrictive , ideological, and gonzo local laws, the local Bureaucrats who enforce them are incompetent. I talked to one business owner, rain ran off the roof of his business, down the gutters, across the parking lotinto a storm grate on his property. The foreign national, who was the enforcing Bureaucrat for the California EPA, decided that the rain water was a major source of pollution and required the business owner to set up a very expensive water treatment plant, to purify the rain water before it went into the drain. There was no appeal and the idiot enforcing the laws, coming up with this scheme, was so incompetent as not to understand the issues, and whose language skills were such, could not follow the conversation. Instead of spending hundreds of thousands, if not millions, the business owner simply asphalted the storm grate on his property, all the rain water that previously drained through the grate on his property, flowed out into the street, draining in the public drains. Anyway, you hear enough of this idiocy out of California, local Government not only gone ideologically and militantly mad, but so incompetent that they are unaware they are incompetent, you would have to ask the question, why would anyone set up any business in the that state?
To further bash on California, a bud of mine contacted a California University and investigated College tuition for illegal immigrants. If you are a DACA type, both the Federal Government and the State of California have College Tuition money for you. Massive numbers of illegal immigrants are getting free College educations through these programs. Not only that, an illegal immigrant gets a spot in Medical Schools, Engineering Colleges, Law schools, spaces that everyone else has to compete for. I had a room mate who was a straight A student, competing for Medical School. There would be hundreds of applications for maybe 13 slots. He made it, but that was when the selection process was strictly based on merit. Colleges are no longer a meritocracy, students are in fact, ranked according to race and gender, with white males on the bottom, and according to immigration status. Now, if you are an illegal immigrant, you get one of those higher education slots. If however, you are unfortunately an American Citizen, "minority" or not, you don't. You don't get the DACA free educational grants, and you don't get the Medical, Law, Engineering school slot, you have to compete for whatever slots are left over after DACA, and you have to compete based on race and sex. This is a major reason you see so many DACA types on the news being interviewed on campus. They get a free education for being an illegal immigrant, which is not being mentioned by the liberal media.
