So called 'progressive' liberal policies destroyed the city.

Now the so called 'progressive' liberals want businesses to pay for the consequences of their 'progressive' path of destruction.

Of course. Because everything else we have done to appease these groups has worked so well.

Should use the money to buy a bunch of high pressure water trucks to clean up the sewage on the sidewalks and streets.

Sure. Fund bureaucrats to cater to the homeless. That’ll solve the problem. /s

Collectivists can only play one tune on their fiddle: the tax hike waltz.

Reason 816 why I’m glad I don’t live in Cali. With all due respect,of course, to FReepers who do.

If you want less of something ... tax it.
If you want more of something ... subsidize it.

Prepare for less business and more poop.

Frisco should check with Seattle about how the business “head tax” for the homeless worked out for them.

The businesses have only themselves to blame for it.. They chose to remain in that communist sh*+hole.

Do they have portapotties? I know it is tacky to have a bunch of them around but much more preferable to the alternative.

I feel very sorry for anyone in business in SF. Used to live a few miles from there in late 70’s (Fairfield). The town was so beautiful back then.

What a shame.

I don’t see this passing.

My suggestion would be pull up a bus each day, and pick fifty ‘freeloaders’ and bus them an hour east of SF...to some state forest area. Put a fence...some barracks-like structure, and feed them three meals a day...with no access to drugs. Once they’ve completed a full year of rough-rehab, you offer a chance to exit and get a real job.

Typical liberal response: Don’t address the problem, perpetuate the problem by making jobs more scarce. Years ago, companies were leaving the Rust Belt in droves for cheaper, often non-union, labor in the South. Ohio passed an Exit T
ax under Gov. Celeste saying that any company that closed its doors had to leave 6 months wages behind to offset the unemployment costs. Very shortly thereafter, they noticed there we no new company startups in the state. To their credit, they quickly cancelled the law. I wonder if SF is as smart?

Punish the Productive and give money to the Unproductive.
And the bureaucrats who live on "helping" the Unproductive.

And tax on "Big Business" is of course popular in Commiefornia but they always ignore it's a tax on everyone, the company's products get more expensive and the tax money can never show up in the employee's paychecks.

AP notes that the Mountain View, Calif., City Council also placed a measure on the November ballot asking voters to authorize a tax on Google and other companies with employees in the city.

Huh?

What's next? A tax on companies with customers in the city?

Wells Fargo was not consulted, however an ex vice president of Wachovia now working for the bank agreed that companies such as his should step forward to help the thousands of homeless adrift in the deadly urban wilderness.

The money is given to so-called “homeless advocacy” groups. Very little actually goes to help the homeless.

It’s all a scam.

Subsidize the things you want more of, tax the things you want less of.
