Riddle: How do budget cuts, DEI hires, and empty reservoirs, turn the bluest, most Democrat city Red?

Considering federal policies: States may consider federal policies like increases or decreases in federal aid, or unfunded federal mandates.

Paying off the HUGE federal debt like this one isn’t going to be easy. Still, as long as that debt is there, it is a threat that could destroy the U.S. economy.

Still, that doesn't mean that one day San Francisco won’t elect a Republican mayor and city council. But it won’t be because of budget cuts, DEI, or empty reservoirs.

What follows are THREE STRIKES that prove this question isn’t a riddle but propoganda from FELON47 and his enablers to mislead people.

Adult men: 3.7% in December 2024

During his first four years becoming a traitor, FELON47’s last budget cut for the wealthiest 1%, will “add a combined $8.4 trillion to the debt over the next ten-year period.” The current US debt has reached more than $36 trillion.

Why does my vagina and around my butthole itch? I don't have weird discharge and I'm still a virgin.

Guess what: Canada, Mexico, and some of the other states sent help to fight those LA fires, but FELON47 and his MAGA stooges in Congress refused. The prefer to lie and blame Newsom, because Newsom like California have to be punished for not support FELON47.

San Francisco tech sector — This sector has been recognized for its diversity, and companies are working to create environments that value employees of all backgrounds.

Limiting revenue increases: States may limit revenue increases to avoid losing taxpayers.

Think of it this way, take all the traffic at rush hour on a freeway with 8 lanes, and send that traffic to a two lane road, one lane for each direction. What happens? Water pipes can’t expand to carry more water just like a two lane road can’t add six more lanes in a moment to handle increased traffic.

Most of what people hear about DEI is extreme right MAGA fascist lies.

Can the existence of past lives be proven without the use of hypnosis or a pendulum to inquire about previous incarnations?

In 2024, San Francisco had a GDP of $263.1 billion, making it one of the largest cities in the United States by GDP. San Francisco also had the fastest-growing GDP of any US city that year.

In November 2023, major reservoirs were at 124% of average.

The truth. There’s plenty of water in California at this time, but the pipes between the reservoirs and those wildfires can only supply so much water at a time, and these wildfires are so fierce they overwhelmed the ability of the pipes to supply enough water fast enough. And the high winds grounded aircraft from dropping water on those fires.

Why do some children hate their parents?

STRIKE THREE: The reservoirs providing water to San Francisco and the rest of California are not empty. They are above capacity due to more than average rainfall for the last two years, and under Governor Newsom, a new reservoir is being built in California, the largest to be built in the United States in the last fifty years. Since Newsom only has two years left to serve as governor, It will be completed after he’s not governor any longer, since it can take a decade or more to build a large reservoir legally and properly.

California's reservoirs are currently in good shape, with levels above average after two wet winters. However, the state's water managers must balance flood control with preparing for possible droughts.

Again, more lies from FELON47 and his MAGA cult that California ran out of water and can’t fight the wildfires in Los Angeles County, blaming Governor Newsom.

Maybe if FELON47 gets what he wants and becomes the dictator he said he is going to be, he will turn California and San Francisco red by having his fascist MAGA thugs round up and execute the elected Democrats and replace them with Trump loyalists who are race car drivers and coaches like he said he’s going to do to the US military so they obey his every command like nuke hurricanes and China, while invading Canada, Greenland, and Panama, starting World War III.

Reflecting the community — DEI efforts can help organizations better reflect the diversity of the Bay Area

This question is not a riddle. It’s propoganda pretending to be a question.

STRIKE ONE: Budget cuts. States must balance their budgets. To cut the budget means cutting programs that benefit the people who live in the state. The largest share of state spending goes to education – more than 50 cents out of every state dollar supports California's public schools, community colleges, and public university systems.

California has the largest state population in the United States. That means more revenue and more people with more infrastructure to maintain and public services to provide. One of those public services is the public education system in California.

STRIKE TWO: DEI — Those who think DEI is reverse discrimination have been lied to by FELON47 and his enablers again. San Francisco had the fastest-growing GDP of any US city in 2024. That wouldn’t have happened if employers were forced to hire workers who weren’t qualified for the jobs available.

The largest budget item for the federal government, on the other hand, is defense spending, while, according to the U.S. Treasury Fiscal Data, approximately 3% of the federal budget is allocated to education, training, employment, and social services, which includes spending on education.

Examples of DEI efforts in San Francisco

Setting budget requirements: States may have balanced budget requirements (BBRs) that require the governor to propose a budget, the legislature to pass it, and the governor to sign it.

San Francisco residents value diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and believe it's a key part of the city's culture. DEI efforts are underway in many San Francisco organizations, including schools, media, and the symphony.

Economic opportunity — Addressing racial inequity in the Bay Area could add billions of dollars to the economy.

Considering demographic variables: States may consider demographic variables like the number of school-age children, the number of youth, and the number of elderly.

San Francisco gets its drinking water from a variety of sources, including snowmelt, rainfall, and groundwater. The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) manages these sources to provide water to 2.7 million people in the Bay Area.

Asian: 3.5% in December 2024

States balance their budgets by ensuring that their expenditures don't exceed their available resources. This is done by:

“What percentage of the US budget goes toward the military? In 2023, defense spending made up 13.3% of the federal budget. Since 1980, the percentage of federal spending for the military has fluctuated between a height of 27.9% in 1987 and lows of 11% in 2020 and 2021.

White — In 2020, 44.9% of San Francisco's population was White. In 2022, White (Non-Hispanic) residents were the most common ethnic group.
