The IRS wants to end another major tax loophole for the wealthy and raise $50 billion in the process
Local city government cuts funding for sewer/storm drain repairs, then demands DeSantis pay for it.
It is actually much worse than that. The problem they are having is that street-running LRT trains get stuck in traffic, causing bunching and other scheduling issues. The obvious solution is to get cars completely out of the way of the trains. But despite an official "transit first" policy, the SFMTA won't do that. So instead they will spend >$100 million on a new signal system, which will map train locations in real-time simply to tell dispatchers what they already know -- that the trains are stuck in traffic.
In California, local government does not get any revenue from speeding tickets. It is one reason there is so little enforcement of traffic laws.
