Hey Dave, I have a new job for you - count all of those votes. As per the election, I am not sure about California, although if Newsome really did win by such a wide margin, we are in more trouble than I thought.

And IMO, he was not the most leftist candidate for the job. Wow  |

Who would you hire, someone educated in our woke system, or a foreigner.

Who would you hire, someone educated in our woke system, or a foreigner. Exactly. Assume you're a hiring manager at Apple and you need software engineers. Would you hire engineers from Japan or Taiwan who studied engineering and are willing to work for $60K, or would you opt for engineers from our schools who learned how to use the proper pronouns and expect $200K straight out of college? |

It is hard to feel sorry for Apple, and I don't. But, if you don't hire the best person for the job, you aren't going to make it as a company.

There's a book written in 2018 by Haidt that first coined the term "safetyism" that I'm about to get into that deals with the mindset of today's coddled younger adults. Anyone here know about it or read it? |

How did this get in "Worst State Governments"? Apple is a California company and indicative of what is wrong with the state. According to your video yesterday with Victor Davis Hanson, these tech companies are running the state into the ground. We need to wrest control of these companies to save the state. VDH says they run our state government. |
