Breed said, “Well, first of all, I would — if I could do it tomorrow morning, I would get rid of most taxes on the books. I want to also be clear that businesses need to pay their fair share. But not at the expense of losing business as a whole. So, I would completely reform the tax system to make it more fair, to make it more equitable, and to make it work for both the city and those businesses. I would also make sure that the streets and the city is clean and it’s safe, because we need to make sure that, as people come here on public transportation, as they move around the city using different modes of transportation, that they’re getting to work safe and they want to be here.”

This is without question the dumbest fucking thing I've ever heard come out of an elected official.

The sheer financial irresponsibility to suggest this shows that SF is being led by a cabal of affirmative action morons.

My main problem with that is the inconsistency, the wishy-washiness. And the idiocy isn't over the policy, but the bizarreness of the speech.

...I would get rid of most taxes on the books. I want to also be clear that businesses need to pay their fair share...I would completely reform the tax system to make it more fair...

She says she wants to get rid of taxes, but then says they need to pay their fair share.

I would also make sure that the streets and the city is clean and it’s safe...”

This part is actually the part that annoys me the most, though. She "would also make sure"...if what? If fucking what, and why hasn't she yet? What is she waiting for?! She's in charge! It's empty political nonsense, but delivered especially incompetently. It's fantastical dreaming, but delivered as policy.

If she "would" make the streets clean and safe, why isn't she? And how is having less money going to make that more feasible, if the two are even related?
