San Francisco is another example of major handouts being doled by raging redistributors.
It's booming.

Booming with crime, you mean.

Personally, I'd rather be living in the sticks here in Arkansas. The worst crime I have seen in the last week (true story) was the one about how the Arkansas State Police threatened to sue a local resident for harassment unless he stopped calling them. He was told to call the local police department. He called the local police the next evening to report that a troll holding a shotgun had just jumped up on his deck, The local police could find neither troll nor shogun. ROFL and LOL!!! You just can't make this stuff up :)
