People holding up the corrupt machine that runs San Francisco as a liberal or progressive government are woefully misinformed. They operate to cover their own asses (recall the DA because he dared to hold police accountable and was investigating the mayor's brother) or what the small but excessively rich upper crust of the city, both old money and tech billionaires tell them to
Desperate for reelection, San Francisco Mayor London Breed announced on Tuesday that she was taking a page from Florida and rolling out drug testing to welfare recipients.
You know, like Florida did a few years ago.
We all know how that ended. Blocked by a federal judge after 4 months, the program cost Florida at least $45,000 more in paying for the testing than any savings achieved by cutting benefits for the 2.6% of welfare. The ACLU summarized that debacle well.
