It’s not about the issues themselves, it’s about how we manage them. For instance, take homelessness. There are an estimated 17,000 people who are homeless in the city and county of San Francisco and 3,000 of them meet the definition of chronically homeless. New York, a city many times our size, has 2,700. Yet San Francisco spends approximately $200 million annually on services for the homeless. I dunno. At first stab I’d say $200 million is a good amount to spend. I’m sure there are people who would say that as long as one person was homeless we shouldn’t spend a dime on hair care products. And I would concur, except that I know that some people who are homeless are so by choice. Our society is insane. Our culture a fabrication. Our generosity a shadow of what it could be. But to examine where we can go realisticly, I’d be a liar to say that I have an answer. I’m not even sure what the question really is.

I’m not gonna win. Duh. But voting for me for second place is a good protest vote. It’d be an insult to everyone’s intelligence to run to win. What a waste of time, postulating what I would do if elected. How boring. But using this opportunity to examine the political apparatus of San Francisco is likely the best use of our campaign time. Because this time it’s not all gonna be two dickheads eating each other alive to look good. To win. Winning is over-rated. The process… and being present for it, is the real win. And a protest vote for second place that makes a small dent is better than what anyone else is offering.

You want to be taken seriously?, don’t hide. This is why i thought it might be an inside job.
