SYSTEM: Please welcome RTE who just joined the chat.

BearKarate: possible topics... Measures D $ E , Shasta Support Services, Presidential campaign, City Council, unfunded pension levels and possible solutions

BearKarate: can anyone become a radio producer ?..not Ken..lol

RTE: SCOTUS

Jared: hes putting me on the spot

BearKarate: were you talking ?

Jared: yes

BearKarate: lol

BearKarate: sounds painful...especially from a radio perspective...lol

SYSTEM: Please welcome Sungold who just joined the chat.

Sungold: Good Morning

RTE: I want to find out whether Ken is a never Trumper??

Sungold: Yes, Ken, people are actually chatting while you are talking!

RTE: I can't stand people that will send the country down the drain because they wanted another candidate. SCOTUS is the most important issue.

RTE: Suicide is a decission

Sungold: National news this morning Los Angles brought in tiny homes for the homeless which were on wheels , homeless loved them, could wheel them around, City grew to hate them, they were disposed of and the homeless cleared out. Denver had housing built for them, homeless hated it and trashed them. It

RTE: The problem with homeless has to do with mental illness and/or the economy.

RTE: I personally know a retired homicide detective that once was homeless.

RTE: This was due to not having a job. She went to college and then achieved her position. She is now retired

RTE: However, if you want to work, it's hard for me to see how there is no work. If you want to work, you can at least pound on doors and offer.

Sungold: There is always work if someone really wants to work. One can run errands for folks who cannot get out, mow lawns, help elderly neaten up their yards and make them for fireproof, especially this time of year. Handy man stuff, many women have a hard time finding some one to change light bulbs that

RTE: This suicide discussion is driving me insane!

Sungold: are up high, and other minor repairs around the house, weeding, even cooking for those who cannot.

RTE: Right on Sungold and this feel sorry for the homeless topic spins my wheels

Sungold: Then don't listen, go be productive

RTE: Are you assumong I'm not productive?

RTE: Radio is a good because you can work and listen

Sungold: No, but if you do not like the topic, why torture yourself

Sungold: Tune into another station for a bit.

RTE: I might hear something different.. you never know

RTE: I hate those two liberal freaks on the other station

RTE: I think Steve still votes for Brown... now there are two insane guys

RTE: When someone tells you they want to commit suicide, then you have someone who is not good at killing themselves. So if they want to be successful, they shouls go through with it.

Sungold: There is always public radio, some really good programming

RTE: some of it makes you want to commit suicide

RTE: I don't feel like committing suicide today.

RTE: Maybe if Hillary gets elected

RTE: If you ask me,,, and I know you won't, peopld who vote for Hillary are insane.

BearKarate: lol

RTE: By the way Sungold... I can't stand public radio... so socialist... too socialist, although the classical music on FM is nice if I can get good reception.

BearKarate: wow...I'm gone for a few minutes dropping off the kids and you guys get all depressed...lol

RTE: LOL

RTE: I'm not depreswsed

RTE: depressed

RTE: only with my typing

RTE: jared should be telling Ken some of these punchlines

RTE: One thing I would like to know about local politics is whether it really cast a million dollars a piece or if it was for all of them, the lights on the cypress bridge?

BearKarate: Wall Street Journal just announced they reviewed the latest emails and the lines between the foundation and the secretary of state's office were "blurred"

BearKarate: NOR CAL

Sungold: I don't know about Socialist, the things I listen to are educational, I like to learn

Sungold: So sick of hearing about Obama, Hillary and Trump

RTE: Be careful about the rationalization NPR injects into you...

RTE: pretty soon you will be a globalist

RTE: and a subject

RTE: Is this LaMalfa on the phone

Sungold: Those lights on the bridge are ugly, they are full of cobwebs, dirty, they damage easily, they are a mess, just like the Sundial Bridge. Always dirty glass, broken tiles all over, it is a mess too

RTE: Can you change ther bulbs

RTE: the

Jared: yes this is LaMalfa

Sungold: I have not clue about the bulbs, just and ugly eyesore.

RTE: I know Doug

RTE: tough job

Sungold: It would have been much better to design something they could take a firehose too and wash off now and then

RTE: but I think he voted wrong on the trade bill, you know Obama wanted that bill passed and it is bad

RTE: I'm hoping Trump can stop it somehow

RTE: If we could do something about the insane, then we can eliminate the Democrat party

RTE: Carl would have delayed the AD

RTE: I'm going to tell Carl

SYSTEM: Please welcome Gref who just joined the chat.

RTE: Sungold, I like the look of the Cypress bridge lights at night, its just that they cost waaaay too much and you might have a rought time changinging bulbs

RTE: Someone voted on their cost

RTE: There's something wrong with this picture

Gref: That's the problem with those in charge, it's been the same mindset since the 50s. No encouraging of job growth, tax as much as you can, instead of planning bigger roads for growth, paint anot extra lane between the 2 that already exist. Close some streets, tear old historic buildings down, waste m

Gref: Waste more when you tear the roof off

RTE: I fear we would have lost Normandy with Doug's mindset

Gref: Create a jail that will not be able to be added to, so later on you have to build a bigger one

RTE: Good Gref

RTE: A good place would be Stillwater

Gref: It's like some senior Veterans around here, all they care about is give me attention and who cares about the middle class.

BearKarate: Senior Veterans ?

Gref: Yep..retired officers who still think they are leading others

SYSTEM: Guest just signed off.

SYSTEM: Guest just signed off.

SYSTEM: Sungold just signed off.

Gref: They forget that NCO's can also lead and who also have degrees

SYSTEM: Please welcome Sungold who just joined the chat.

Gref: Just like our elected officials think that are the only ones smart enough to get things done. That we who are constituents aren't smart enough to see what they are doing.

SYSTEM: Please welcome BearKarate who just joined the chat.

BearKarate: morons

Gref: Yep

RTE: yeppers

BearKarate: lost all sound....reset numerous times

SYSTEM: Guest just signed off.

SYSTEM: Guest just signed off.

Gref: We are smart enough..and bold enough to go against them

RTE: It was this team thing.. remember Bahner

Gref: Sorry, I dont

RTE: Doug was all for Bahner

RTE: cant remember how you spell his name

RTE: the crying house leader

Gref: Doug gets some things done for vets, which I appreciate, but..there's a lot laxking.

Gref: Oh...boehner

RTE: Yes, he js good with the vets

RTE: thanks

Gref: Welcome

SYSTEM: Please welcome Sungold who just joined the chat.

Sungold: I have no audio

Gref: We need term limits from city counsel, supervisors, Senate and congress.

SYSTEM: Please welcome BearKarate who just joined the chat.

Jared: the live stream?

RTE: It's just a couple of issues I differ with Doug over

BearKarate: Jared ?????

Gref: Turn on a radio

Gref: That way it's not so frustrating

BearKarate: radio ? whats that

RTE: Ane to tell you the truth, I can talk to him personally about them. I don't have to do it over the radio

Gref: That thing with a speaker, a dial, and a hangar on top

BearKarate: does it take my EBT card ?

RTE: It seems that House rules trump the Constitution

Gref: Lol

BearKarate: do I get it free from the county or state ?

Gref: Always

Gref: It's the Commerce clause

Gref: They can do what they want

BearKarate: I'm going to contact my local VSO and find out why my 'radio' hasn't been delivered yet...I DESERVE IT...I DEFENDED THIS COUNTRY !!!!

BearKarate: damn VSO's they are always leaving out all the perks I should get...lol

SYSTEM: Guest just signed off.

BearKarate: JARED ????

Jared: yes?

RTE: Why not base city employees salaries on the city's financial health

BearKarate: you are the man....fix it !!! thats why you get the big bucks !!! lol

RTE: if the city does good, they get more, if it doesn't you decrease trhe salaries

BearKarate: low base salaries and bonus if we have a good year....just like a business

RTE: That would make a difference

BearKarate: that way the city employees can be our eyes and ears inside

BearKarate: they can keep an eye on this moronic city council

RTE: The city make a goof... oh well, come on citizens... your problem... I want my big salary

SYSTEM: Please welcome SOUNDALLJACKED who just joined the chat.

SYSTEM: Guest just signed off.

RTE: However, it is more the state that is causing our problems

SYSTEM: Guest just signed off.

SOUNDALLJACKED: what a shame...finally having some conversation worthy of paying attention and no one can hear it

Jared: the live stream still not working? i just got it working on my cellphone to check

RTE: Now if the city was a business, wouldn't the owners of said business be making less in bad times... Well that's the problem

Jared: literally 2 minutes ago

SOUNDALLJACKED: its in and out...sounds like a warped record

Jared: dang

SOUNDALLJACKED: have it on my phone...rough but catch every few words...lol

Jared: well ive checked the stream computer and it looks normal so there isnt much i can do atm.. not a tech guy

Jared: sorry

RTE: My main problem with government is the pensions. I think we shouldn't be liable. Give them enough for retirement and require them to have a trust for that. This way a city can downsize.

: The raises that were given out just prior to announcing the new sales tax would have paid for the amount the city says it needs for public safety. Where is the priority here and why is the city manager give a raise when he hasn't solved the number one problem, public safety? Does he get a raise ju

RTE: I want to put the homeless shelter next to Francy Sullivan's house

SOUNDALLJACKED: clueless....giving raises and then asking for more money....time to start cutting the FAT...as in fat head city managers !!!and asst managers and all the other DEPT Heads

SOUNDALLJACKED: I will donate to that RTE

SOUNDALLJACKED: we could name it after her....Francie's homeless shelter...ALL welcome

RTE: chain link fence and razor wire

RTE: gun free zone

SOUNDALLJACKED: firehose's and electric fence...

SOUNDALLJACKED: then train local people to get the job done...we don't always have to compete with other markets...develope your own stable of people for the jobs we need filled...Gallo wine did exactly that for the significant roles within...smart people look for real solutions...don't just whine and write checks

SOUNDALLJACKED: but that is what the market says we should pay him....what a lame argument...

RTE: Maybe we should contract people and not have employees

SOUNDALLJACKED: look at the difference between sheriffs dept and RPD.... a different model completely each with their own advantages but only one fits our market and budget

RTE: take bids

SOUNDALLJACKED: this is a joke...

SOUNDALLJACKED: a bad joke

SYSTEM: Please welcome soundalljacked who just joined the chat.

RTE: We shouldn't be paying retirement... let the employees take out trusts.. it's insane to be liable

RTE: I like this caller

RTE: no unions in government

RTE: Ken is biased

soundalljacked: Murray was ok with the PARS vote and did nothing once it was exposed in the day....why should we expect anything creative or outside the box from him ? step up Ken...be part of the solution

soundalljacked: have to get rid of our unions in govt

RTE: I vote we throw the unions out of government
