San Francisco and Los Angeles

Conditions On The Streets Of San Francisco Are Comparable To “The Slums Of Mumbai, Delhi, Mexico City, Jarkarta, And Manila”

By Michael Snyder, from The Coming Economic Collapse, June 24, 2019

Once upon a time, some of the most beautiful cities in the entire world were on the west coast, but now those same cities are degenerating into drug-infested cesspools of filth and garbage right in front of our eyes.  San Francisco is known as the epicenter for our tech industry, and Los Angeles produces more entertainment than anyone else in the world, and yet both cities are making headlines all over the world for other reasons these days.  Right now, nearly a quarter of the nation’s homeless population lives in the state of California, and more are arriving with each passing day.  When you walk the streets of San Francisco or Los Angeles, Continue reading San Francisco and Los Angeles →

We asked them why they were going out of business.  They said that the entire complex of warehouses which contained their business had filled up with marijuana growers. They’ve been broken into so many times.  They had to put up a sign on their door that says “There is no cash and no computers inside of this business.”

California Leads Nation in BHO fires; Michigan voters consider pot legalization

The mother of a 13-year-old boy made butane hash oil from marijuana in a Michigan hotel on May 17, 2017.  The fire caused serious injuries to both Brian Adams and his brother.  As Michigan voters consider the legalization of marijuana, they need to evaluate how they will pay for these tragedies that occur regularly on the west coast.

Last summer, a 19-year-old teen from Michigan died from his burns in a butane hash oil explosion.  Two others were seriously injured,  and the explosion scared the neighbors Continue reading California Leads Nation in BHO fires; Michigan voters consider pot legalization →
