BOYCOTT! Golden Gate Restaurant Association
BOYCOTT Golden Gate Restaurant Association for sponsoring Proposition N--Gavin Newsoms attack on the POOR. Help stop wealthy entrepreneurs from kicking SFs poorest further into poverty!
The following is a list of restaurants that are members of the Golden Gate Restaurant Association (GGRA). Please support POOR Magazine in boycotting the following restaurants because they are members of the GGRA, which support Gavin Newsome's Proposition N, which contrary to its claims of "care" will put more poor people on the streets by taking away their rent money, reducing drug treatment services, healthcare and pay folks pennies per hour for their work-fare (the work required by the City to recieve your monthly cash assistance)
POOR contacted GGRA several times to inquire about their reason for supporting Prop N, but they did not respond, so we are asking our subscribers and readers to join us in boycotting these restaurants in opposition to this very harmful legislation.
Please join us in boycotting the following restaurants until their owners disavow membership in GGRA and denounce Newsom’s Proposition N.
GGRA is active in the greater Bay Area. For members in your area, please check www.ggra.org members dining guide.
Call and inform OWNERS of the boycott and why. As long as the owners remain affiliated with GGRA, they will remain targets of an on-going boycott. Restaurant workers are not the target of this boycott campaign.

Boycott Boulevard? Are you insane? The food is way too yummy.
Nothing better than yummy....but then again lot's of yummy places are not members of conservative political action group--Newsom, GGRA and hotel council.
Call Boulevard and let them know you think their food is yummy, but their position on SFs poor is not! By letting owners know business will be lost due to their fincancial funding of PROP N and sponsorship of negative, divisive ads that demonize and scapegoat the poor is distatsteful.
I called my favorite restaurants, gave my name and info so if they'd like to explain themselves or if their position changes they can call me.
Seems a slight sacrifice for the right reasons.

To the Presumptive Newsom Campaign Drone Using CAPS:
Just becaues you think it, and CAP it out,
doesn't make it so. Throwing a tantrum and pitching those Ralph Reed brand of insult is not compelling...unless, you're a little baby, a
Political Hack, just another heartless boob
who thinks-they-know-it-all-damn-it.
Your coments reek of Republicanese. Republicans are tearing down society from the inside out...now SF conservatives who suscribe to divisive rhetoric are applying Ralph Reed spins here in SF--the moral majority?? Hah!
Dialogue and debate require one to formulate
arguments pertinent to the discussion, not
based upon limited opinions and red-herring
bait-- especially when concerning the plight of
San Francisco's poor and disenfranchised.
Facts? Proof? What exactly have you done to
put theory into practice when you say your
interested in helping raise quality of life for
SFs poor? What have you done to alleviate pain
and suffering caused by poverty? What have you done to bring living wages, affordable housing,comprehensive care to San Francisco's most needy and disenfranchised?
Oh, try as you may to defend "sCare not Cash" Prop N's
inhumane, fiscally twisted, unAmerican,
Undemocratic Newsom campaign strategy. You
know, you've pretty much run that spin "sCare"
into the ground...getting kinda stale, you
know? Like you really care. But now I see you're going for entitlement as the "moral majority?" Good luck.
Let's hear some Facts. Real Numbers...Unless you're into Enron derivitives or enraptured by master manipulators using statisitcs to guard your base opinions of the poor...or anyone else you may disagree with?
Prop N Property of Moral Majority? The number of voters who approved Prop N was dismal when compared to the number of all registered voters, and past voter turnouts. That has meaning to the rest of us, sorry you
don't get the connection, but wouldn't expect you
to anyway...singular in your defense and all. Roughly 27% of all eligible voters, participated in the election last fall 2002. Nearly, that means not quite, 60% ballots cast by the aforementioned 27% supported Poop N. That is not a mandate and clearly not a majority. The morality issue? Puhleeze! Empty promises more like it.
Money? Nothing in your posts indicate where the monies to implement Prop N is going to come from. But
that's what hacks do, right. Instigate, divide,
dismantle and destroy without consensus.
To all else, we must take the 2002 election
year into account since this is exactly what
Newsom did when timing his divisive plans to
use the homeless and poor in his run for mayor.
Timing is everything-- it's common knowledge
that folks like Newsom use unDemocratic and
unAmerican campaign strategies that manipulate the process to ensure passage of otherwise upolular ideas. Campaign finance, soft money are serious problems to boot. Big money PR campaign drown out arguments neccessary for honest, open debate.
Rather, shame on you for promoting such ass-
backward thinking when discussing the fate of
people unbeknownst to you. Do you have
experience working with the vast diverse poor
population in SF? Do you understand that there
are no services available and no monies to
create services? Or are you one of those
virtual ideologues dispensing opinions but
never respecting the opinions of others and
never getting off your bum to enact
comprehensive successful policies to alleviate
the shredding of our social fabric.?
Many SFers tolerate you're right to live here, do you
tolerate the rights of others or is this to
become a town only for the rich and wanna-be
idolizers who force feed their self-serving divisive
campaign platforms upon an unwilling audience.
Stop being so UnAmerican and Undemocratic, then maybe people could try and understand your opinions.
See you at the polls. peace

So if defeating Prop N was so important to the majority of people in the City, then why didn't they bother to vote? If you don't vote, you have no right to b**ch when things don't go the way you want.
Let's take a poll: Do you think people have the right to live and crap on the street? I'll bet you the majority say "no"

well isn't that special? read the California preamble...unfortunately, businesses and folks like you don't abide by it. Never refuse water, shelter from the cold, and use of a bathrooom. Inhumane and uncivilized. Where are the homeless supposed to go?

boycott is good
boycott is a smart choice.
don't let SF Republicans blame the poor for loss of business....actually, most tourists come here because of the legacy SF has as being a tolerant, compassionate, anti-war, pro-civil rights town--for our diversity.
Our streets and cable cars are full of tourists--from abroad too, especially of late. Visitors I've talked to say SF is the perfect choice to vacation because SF is a welcome place known for it's support of civil rights and tolerance for all types of folks--even folks who foam at the mouth whenever anyone else expresses another point of view.

To Care not Cash/Newsom Campaign:
I noticed in other posts people are asking you where the money will come from to implement Prop N.
In your next response, can you please:
indicate where money will come from to pay for the services and housing promised in Prop N?
Where will the city house the seniors, disabled, veterans, impoverished families, and terminally ill displaced in order to make rooms available for housing homeless?
from another San Franciscan voter

the proposition diverts the money that is now given directly to the homeless.
this money is too often spent on drugs and or alcohol,
under care not cash, the money is directed to pay (at least in part) for services needed by the individual. this amount $350 to (what ever the upper amount is)
will off set part of the bill for the individuals treatment needs.
the services in place at present are already subsidized by the city and can offer the needed transition to permanent housing.
we pay this money anyway- why shouldn't it go to "solve the problem????????????
my god,
what a bunch of dummies, they are out protesting against this propositition that they didn't even take the time to read what it was about?
why aren't you out protesting against illiteracy.
what a bunch of ignorant people.
Answer the questions, and stop gagging on your own rhetoric. Base attacks reveal your true nature.
Sorry your excuses for thsi policy don't add up. Again, your arguement in support of implementing this measure during budget cutbacks is imbicilic. There are not enough services or housing available to fullfill the promises made by Prop N. Where again, will the money come from to sustain drug treatment programs for homeless now being cut, mental health programs for homeless--now being cut; health care clinics---now being cut; veteran's services--now being cut; subsidized housing---now being cut?
Check out expert testimony given during committee hearings regarding implementation of Prop N. The care's not there. Taking $300x1600/mos=doesn't add up to the funds neccessary to house, treat homeless let alone find housing placements for the seniors, disabled, veterans, mothers and children displaced to make rooms available to targets of prop n....
Yes, let's raise quality of life for hte poor and homeless. But where's the money for hte Care?
You can't give "care" without the funds to back it up.
Literacy is not the propblem here it's differences in intellect and ones ability to do math.

Calling the restaurants isn't so bad...the staff so far have been quite understanding, polite and considerate.
I too am concerned with identifying funding for Prop N especially since non-profits dealing in veteran, senior, homeless services are struggling to keep afloat due to economic downturn and severe competition for limited grants.

The golden gate restaurant association along with hotel council is pouring money into newsom's mayoral campaign...newsom--using the poor and homeless to gain higher office. Newsom--who runs bars in Cow Hollow, depicting the homeless as drug addicts, and alcoholics to gain public office. Newsom who pushes alcohol to yuppies in the Marina while panhandling millions from his robber-baron family friends the Getty's. Newsom who hires Jack Davis--patron of those infamous Jack Daniel's butt-reaming party freaks, to run his moral minority campaign. Newsom who hasn't filed income and financial backing papers with the elections ethics commission. Double standards or just business as usual.
oh yea, to those freaks that support taking the only money available from the poorest--how can taking at most $300/month per homeless translate into enough funds to cover housing, and healthcare services? Hmmm, per person, that's $10/day? Hmmm, $10/day for housing and services? It doesn't add up using your figures. Show the money and indicate where it comes from then where services will be provided...prove to the board of supes and sf voters that Prop N has enough funding to enact comprehensively.
Care not Cash drone says services will come from programs already funded by the city...uh, excuse me but these services are being hacked to pieces due to federal/state/local budget cuts...plus, shelter beds and subsidized hotel rooms are being slashed! Ah hah, once again forcing the non-profits to do the city's work...sounds like Reaganomics to me.

You still haven't asnwered the question. Where will the funds come from? Where is the housing? Where are the services?
By your methodology, taking from $59/month up to $350/month from each recipient will adequately fund housing and services....hmmm, that's from $1.96/day up to $12/day-person and you're saying that's enough to supply housing and services? Uh, what kinda "math" are you using? Voodoo?
Support POOR magazines boycott of Golden Gate restaurants...search restaurants using their memer guide... http://www.ggra.org/html/members_dining.cfm
We've been calling or stopping by leaving messages for owners to let them know about boycott. GGRA and SF Hotel Council are pouring soft money into Newsom's campaign. Don't support businesses that kick the poor when the economy takes a dive.
Yea Ed Rosenthal no jail time but ...boooo Judge Breyer for making him a felon. Repeal the conviction!

Getting Careless
Research Doesn't Support Newsom's Care not Cash Initiative
By Cassi Feldman
Signature-gatherers had no trouble getting sunburned revelers at the Haight Street Fair to sign on to Sup. Gavin Newsom's proposed ballot initiative,
which was cheerfully described as "a new program to help the homeless."
Neither did the hordes of volunteers who hit the streets after the initiative's June 15 kickoff party. But critics say they hope these easy converts read the fine print before Election Day. Because beneath the catchy
"Care not Cash" slogan is a poorly researched policy shift.
Currently there are approximately 2,800 homeless single adults receiving a monthly cash grant of up to $395 from the city. If Newsom's initiative passes in November, they would lose the cash and instead receive in-kind services such as housing and meals plus a monthly allowance of $59. The point, according to the initiative, is to eliminate "the incentive for
homeless individuals who want cash rather than services to congregate here" and "reduce deaths from drug overdoses."
But while these ideas have surface appeal, there's very little data to support them. Neither the Department of Human Services nor the Mayor's Office on Homelessness could provide us with any evidence that cash benefits attract homeless people to San Francisco.
And though Newsom points to a 1999 New England Journal of Medicine study that found an increase in deaths nationwide during the first week of the
month, right after federal benefits were mailed out, there's no been no local study on the correlation. When Department of Public Health director
Mitchell Katz conducted a cursory review of a 48-month period Nov. 1, 1997, through Oct. 31, 2001 he found only a minor difference between the number of deaths in the days just after checks go out (approximately 19.4) and the rest of the month (18.8).
So why make the change? According to the initiative, one major reason is to "bring San Francisco in line with almost every other California county."
Most Bay Area counties have recently switched from cash to in-kind services, yet according to a May 9 report from the city's legislative analyst, it's
too early to tell how their clients have fared. At best, the counties reported "some cost savings" and a drop in caseloads. And that may not be a good thing. Alameda found that most homeless people chose to go without
General Assistance rather than be forced into shelter.
Overall, the report concludes, "policies that are developed on the basis of anecdotal evidence, even though they are responsive to the hardening tide of
public opinion, may lead to inefficient and ineffective use of public resources, or to punitive withdrawal of funds that are desperately needed."
That fits right in with what City Controller Ed Harrington reported in his May 15 audit of San Francisco's homeless services. Harrington wrote that shifting political whims were exacerbating the problem. He suggested all "legislation, budget actions, and ballot initiatives related to homelessness" be presented to the Local Homeless Coordinating Board, which
includes service providers and homeless people, for input.
Newsom must have missed that part. According to Darryl Smaw, coordinating board liaison, the board has not been asked to comment on Care not Cash.
Newsom told us there was no point in asking the board since its executive committee already "wrote a letter shooting [the initiative] down."
Newsom doesn't seem to mind the opposition. He said that cutting cash aid would free up $10 million a year, which could fund 1,000 new residential
hotel rooms and 150 methadone treatment slots. But the initiative doesn't explicitly promise the G.A. money will be used to help homeless people.
The lack of detail isn't what bothers many homeless folks about the proposal. Those we spoke with say the initiative will simply make their lives harder. They'll no longer be able to chip in on informal rental agreements or save up money for a security deposit. If they get evicted from a shelter or homeless program, they'll lose their benefits entirely.
"Politicians just get greedier and greedier," said William Garner, a 51-year-old homeless man who told us he only uses G.A. when he can't find
work. "They're taking from people who can't defend themselves."

Nothing About Us Without Us - Democratize Public Policy
Research Doesn't Support Newsom's Care not Cash Initiative
By Cassi Feldman
Signature-gatherers had no trouble getting sunburned revelers at the Haight Street Fair to sign on to Sup. Gavin Newsom's proposed ballot initiative,
which was cheerfully described as "a new program to help the homeless."
Neither did the hordes of volunteers who hit the streets after the initiative's June 15 kickoff party. But critics say they hope these easy converts read the fine print before Election Day. Because beneath the catchy
"Care not Cash" slogan is a poorly researched policy shift.
Currently there are approximately 2,800 homeless single adults receiving a monthly cash grant of up to $395 from the city. If Newsom's initiative passes in November, they would lose the cash and instead receive in-kind services such as housing and meals plus a monthly allowance of $59. The point, according to the initiative, is to eliminate "the incentive for
homeless individuals who want cash rather than services to congregate here" and "reduce deaths from drug overdoses."
But while these ideas have surface appeal, there's very little data to support them. Neither the Department of Human Services nor the Mayor's Office on Homelessness could provide us with any evidence that cash benefits attract homeless people to San Francisco.
And though Newsom points to a 1999 New England Journal of Medicine study that found an increase in deaths nationwide during the first week of the
month, right after federal benefits were mailed out, there's no been no local study on the correlation. When Department of Public Health director
Mitchell Katz conducted a cursory review of a 48-month period Nov. 1, 1997, through Oct. 31, 2001 he found only a minor difference between the number of deaths in the days just after checks go out (approximately 19.4) and the rest of the month (18.8).
So why make the change? According to the initiative, one major reason is to "bring San Francisco in line with almost every other California county."
Most Bay Area counties have recently switched from cash to in-kind services, yet according to a May 9 report from the city's legislative analyst, it's
too early to tell how their clients have fared. At best, the counties reported "some cost savings" and a drop in caseloads. And that may not be a good thing. Alameda found that most homeless people chose to go without
General Assistance rather than be forced into shelter.
Overall, the report concludes, "policies that are developed on the basis of anecdotal evidence, even though they are responsive to the hardening tide of
public opinion, may lead to inefficient and ineffective use of public resources, or to punitive withdrawal of funds that are desperately needed."
That fits right in with what City Controller Ed Harrington reported in his May 15 audit of San Francisco's homeless services. Harrington wrote that shifting political whims were exacerbating the problem. He suggested all "legislation, budget actions, and ballot initiatives related to homelessness" be presented to the Local Homeless Coordinating Board, which
includes service providers and homeless people, for input.
Newsom must have missed that part. According to Darryl Smaw, coordinating board liaison, the board has not been asked to comment on Care not Cash.

Please help defend SFs poorest by boycotting businesses and special interest Political Action groups backed by millionaire, billionaire wolves in sheeps clothing.
For all the money spent promoting Gavin Newsom for Mayor and his divisive Care Not Cash initiative, affordable housing, shelters, clinics, job training services and treatment facilities could be saved from the heavy handed budget cuts.
Care not Cash was created to bring Newsomm into the media limelight using another republican campaign startegy favorite-- divisive Wedge issues with a Ralph Reed spin.
I'd like to know Newsoms positions on other wedge issues such as abortion, affirmative action, sunshine act, death penalty, three strikes, medical marijuana, campaign finance reform, union contracting for city projects, a national living wage, etal...
Where will the funding to "effectively" enact Prop N Care not Cash come from?
Indicate which city tax dollars will be used to fund:
Treatment for drug and alcohol addiction
Mental care
Decent housing
Job Training
Please, answer the question without name calling.

Answer the Question, please?
Where will the funding for Prop N come from? Indicate where the tax funds to save programs and services, both city funded and non-profits-- groups now facing budget cuts and huge deficits? Where will the Elderly, Veterans, poor families, children, terminally-ill, destitute move after making room to enact Prop N?
If you cannot answer the question, then there is no funding and there are not enough services, therefore there is no cash nor care.

Please call and let the Board of Supervisors know that SFers do not support enacting mis-nomered divisive "Care-Not-Cash" initiative, a.k.a Newsom for Mayor Campaign.
Only 27.90% of all registered voters approved Prop N! (See below.) Proposition N did not pass with a mandate.
The supes know it, the care-givers know it, the non-profits servicing the poor know it, and we know it--- the funding and services to enact Prop N are not adequate nor available. Prop N is bankrupt morally and fiscally.
Furthermore, there are no funds to house the displaced San Franciscan seniors, Veterans, poor families and children, the terminally ill who will be kicked out of their housing placements to make room for enacting Prop N.
Write, Call or drop by! Stop SFs Power Elite from realizing their darkest fantasies of kicking and killing off SFs poor, disabled, seniors, homeless, the needy-- the "undesirables"--and calling it "Care?"

<<"PHILADELPHIA -- Homelessness in Philadelphia is more closely linked to housing costs and the unemployment rate than to the effects of federal welfare reform, according to a new study.
The federally funded study, conducted by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania, examines the number of admissions to public homeless shelters before and after 1996, when Congress imposed five-year lifetime limits on the receipt of welfare benefits. It also documents the number of welfare recipients in Philadelphia between January 1994 and December 2000.
Unemployment is the real story here," said Dennis Culhane, a Penn professor of social welfare policy and the study's lead author. "To the extent that shelter admissions are going up right now... our research would suggest that it's a function of unemployment and the cost of housing."
The research is published in the current issue of Cityscape, a journal issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
But other analysts pointed out that steep housing costs, as well as a high unemployment rate, are exacerbated by a sluggish economy.
"There is a relationship between housing and income," said Martha Burt, director of the social services research program at the Urban Institute, a nonpartisan organization in Washington, D.C. "If housing is affordable, people can get it and people can keep it. As one goes up and the other goes down, things get worse."
The researchers found that the implementation of the reforms had "no effect" on the homeless population, but the unemployment rate and costs of rental housing -- both of which are on the rise -- had a significant effect on homelessness.
The study indicates that broader economic conditions are more important for low-income families, including those on welfare, than welfare reform, Culhane said.
"So job creation, a strong unemployment program, wages that are keeping ground or doing better than inflation -- particularly in the housing market we have -- are all very important interventions," he said. "The evidence suggests those are more important than any welfare policy at this point." >>
What does Newoms have to hide? The fact that there is no funding nor housing available to implement his "Sharp End of the Stick not Cash."
To the Cult-of-One Newsom Fan Club: Answer the question! Where's the funding and tax dollars to pay for both Prop N and the relocation of seniors, veterans, poor families with children, terminally ill, chronically sick--San Francisco's poorest-- who will be displaced by Prop N implementation?
No amount of hilarious, illogical reasoning nor will goof-ball milk-toast insults deter us from participating in democracy and building community, unlike conservatives, claiming to hold moral high ground, who continue to tear and shred our delicate social fabric from the inside out.
Stop with the childish barbs, schoolyard antics and try answering a simple question. Where's the money to implement Prop N going to come from? The revoked grant money doesn't add up. Show us the money, or try our your negativity to another thread.

"So job creation, a strong unemployment program, wages that are keeping ground or doing better than inflation -- particularly in the housing market we have -- are all very important interventions," he said. "The evidence suggests those are more important than any welfare policy at this point." >>
What does Newoms have to hide? The fact that there is no funding nor housing available to implement his "Sharp End of the Stick not Cash."
To the Cult-of-One Newsom Fan Club: Answer the question! Where's the funding and tax dollars to pay for both Prop N and the relocation of seniors, veterans, poor families with children, terminally ill, chronically sick--San Francisco's poorest-- who will be displaced by Prop N implementation?
No amount of hilarious, illogical reasoning nor will goof-ball milk-toast insults deter us from participating in democracy and building community, unlike conservatives, claiming to hold moral high ground, who continue to tear and shred our delicate social fabric from the inside out.
Stop with the childish barbs, schoolyard antics and try answering a simple question. Where's the money to implement Prop N going to come from? The revoked grant money doesn't add up. Show us the money, or try our your negativity to another thread.
CHEVRON-TEXACO and PG&E along with Repubican front groups financed so-called "Care not Cash", aka Newsom for Mayor.
Prop N is a veritable campaign finance loop for soft money and Republican conservative political interest groups.

This is how political operatives from the extreme right treat total strangers. Seen it before while working in the Senate as a young buck. I have actually witnessed this new crop of republicans get physically abusive when having to share same space with people of color!
This is how they deal with controversy and conflict. Name calling, red-liberal-baiting. It's such convincing argumentation! (sarcasm!) Thsi is why we need to defend affirmative action...college educations are being wasted on folks who enter a debate or discussion when their contribution is nil and their vocabulary only stretches as far as "moron."
Boxer? Feinstink-Shorenstein? Huh? I never voted for them? Ditch the Bitch is what we used to say about ol' debutante Dianne. Big deal, tell me something I don't know.

To Anti-this Anti-that person, aka Agente Provocateur:
I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish here, other than causing disruptions? The hateful language minimalizes whatever message you're attempting to convey. Praise to the editors for sparing indys from teh attacking, info-lacking posts.
Please stay on appropriate threads. If it's anti-semitism or anti-zion or anti-censorship...this thread is about SFs homeless and the poor.
If folks are interested in your thoughts they'll read them
Not very democratic of you to jump all over the place, shreddin gothers threads, accusing people of being racists just cuz they don't agree with you or let you post all this negative personal attacks
maybe if you stopped with the personal attacks your posts wouldn't get censored so often.
on the other hand, as a concerned citizen, these are signs of madness
get help soon! please?
