He likes joking around. Here is Jim giving a peace sign to us. Isnt he a fun loving guy. Too bad his chief aim right now is taking money away from the poor.

Maybe he worked for Jim or they work together; we probably should have asked. Jim's friend has one of those nifty Palm Pilot phones. I wonder if Jim's friend's monthly cell phone bill is higer than what homeless people currently on GA get in a month. If Prop N passes maybe Jim's friend will use some of his money to feed some of the people he robbed?

I wonder what they are up to? Trying to figure out how to spin the protest for their own advantage? That is their job afterall and unlike Gavin they actually work.

Did we mention that Jim also has worked to defeat public power?

Jim likes to rob everyone not just the very poor (I guess you dont descriminate do you Jim?).

"Not surprisingly, PG&E is opposed to both measures. Led by the utility and a key electric union, opponents say The City will have to pay as much as $1.4 billion if it wants to take over PG&E's poles and wires. The Coalition for Affordable Public Services, the group running the No on F or I campaign for PG&E, has placed ads all over The City decrying a MUD as "Too Risky, Too Costly."

"The costs are potentially extraordinary," says political consultant Jim Ross, pointing to a 1997 SFPUC study that estimated the total cost of taking over all PG&E distribution and transmission equipment in The City at between $800 million and $1.4 billion.

Worse, Ross says, an untrained, untested public power agency could put us all in the dark.

An average ballot proposition might run a dozen pages or more -- enough to make the average voter cringe.

That's where The City's Ballot Simplification Committee (BSC) comes in: Five residents go through the legislation's legalistic language, whittling it down to about 300 words of plain English that are printed as a digest in the voters' handbook.

Among California cities and counties, only San Francisco uses this process. All other cities have the city attorney or controller write out the digest.

All of this flies right past most residents, insiders say.

San Francisco's process is wide open to the public, and therein lies the clincher: Any partisan is free to influence the outcome.

"Word has gotten out that you can go to BSC and get them to do something beneficial for you," said political consultant Jim Ross, who has run about 30 ballot campaigns in The City in the past 11 years and now works for Care Not Cash.

Yep, thats our Jim.

Ok hes no Jim, but he kinda looks creepy following us in the street when the cops have told us they will arrest anyone who steps in the street.

Yes, the yuppies have the money. The yuppies have the power. The yuppies have pretty much everything money can buy.

Why do they want to take a small amount away from people who have next to nothing? Why do they insist on kicking those who are down?

There are some forms of evil that are just hard to understand.
