A View of the City of San Francisco Under Lurie

Here, I cover the state of the city in which I currently live: San Francisco. A land ripe with crime, dishonesty, and technology that allows us to order anything we want but not stop windows from being broken into and compassion from being extended to strangers on streets. I know a decent amount of San Francisco because I am here and as best I can I look outside my window to see what is going on. The mayor is Daniel Lurie, and that's a major step from London Breed. In the right direction?

I started a group on Nextdoor for conservatives and we've been in contact for a bit. Conversation has to do with our shared desire to improve the city through common sense policies before getting anything else done. We're fervently worried about the rising tensions. Some of the people have experience directly working at city institutions, while others are very politically active and experienced.

It is from those sources that I derive my conclusions here. I see the city as an overall mess. Some people say that the improvements under the Lurie administration are the result of him, but others seem to think that it was a by-product of what was already happening. Whatever it is, the city is cleaning up slightly in terms of deregulation for small business, attempts at cleaning up homelessness and increased police funding. Some report crime is decreasing, and that would be a good thing.

I articulate that to clean up the city, conservatives and moderates, rationale, should demand cleaner streets, reduced crime, increased incentives for individuals and small business, and a clear record of the mayoral office's spending.
