Venezuela visits America, America!
Yes, my friends, if you've not had the occasion to visit San Francisco lately, you might be surprised to learn that it's been magically transformed from the Jewel on the Pacific Coast to the Trash Heap by the Bay.
Progressive politics have (mis)managed to turn this once beautiful town into the worst city in America. I didn't say that; the United Nations representative on human rights (heh, heh) has declared Oakland and San Francisco blights on the human condition. The only two American cities, he's proclaimed, that are "unlivable."
Maybe there's somebody at the U.N. who actually knows whereof he speaks...
Think about that for a minute. The home to Silicon Valley tech companies whose employees cannot afford to live there. A repurposed shipping container, a hole cut for a window, a single light bulb hanging from a string, now rents for $3,000 a month. And they're stacking them atop each other...
The homeless are living on the streets. And peeing. And pooping. In front of Union Square tony restaurants and department stores. You have to walk around them to conduct your bizz. But you can't ask them to leave; noooooooo! That would be insensitive! Immoral, even!
These people are dumber than a bag of rocks!
But one Sean Miller, a tech engineer, has finally grown weary of stepping over and around human feces. He's launched an app called "SnapCrap." You notice a pile of s**t, you notify those nice folks who work picking up poop and they'll be right there, Johnny (ahem!) on the spot, cleaning up all that poop and making life livable again for the nice rich folks who live in SanFran.
SFO just launched a new service to its beat-down residents called the "Poop Patrol." Yes, they really did.
And these Poop Patrol folks, who do not have to have a high school education or any experience (what sort of experience would one need to pick up crap?), start at $75,000 a year plus a bennie pack worth north of $50k per annum.
Perhaps they should hire the poopers to pick up the poop they're pooping, thus putting a homeless pooper to work de-pooping.
Just a thought...
I can't decide which is worse; allowing folks to live and pee and poop and build tent cities in front of your banks and bizznesses, or having to use a high-tech method to clean up the messes they make.
You decide...
