The state cannot sell the beach itself. State law requires public access to all shoreline be permitted. The state makes no attempt to hide this either.
It is highly relevant to this discussion. Vinod Khosla is an immigrant from India, which I believe skews his views on public property such that he believes it is his right to take said property for his own use with no repurcussions.
I'm not a fan of rich foreigners buying their way into citizenship, sure. But stealing from the public is illegal, no matter how good your lawyers are.
Khosla is an immigrant who has applied for and been granted citizenship, but generally for less well to do immigrants, we hold them to high standards if they wish to retain citizenship (even though that results in us creating stateless people). Why is Khosla special?
Public access laws like what California and Washington State have require the property owner to allow access to the beach. This means a property owner has to provide a reasonable right of way to access shoreline on their property. Anything less is illegal, up here in Seattle people get hauled to court (or worse if they refuse to allow access repeatedly).
Stealing a beach from the public domain is illegal, and Cali seems to have serious enforcement problems. No property owner has a right to steal public beaches
Perhaps foreigners who flagarantly and repeatedly violate our laws should be prioritized for deportation. Why should some rich foriegner be allowed to break state and federal laws for years with no serious repercussions?
Edit: If you disagree, please reply with an explanation!
Honestly, probably just best for the club to shut down and reform as a Venturing Crew. Same concept, much more independence, and you get access to the properties and resources that Scouting International and the Boy Scouts of America both offer.
I've yet to run into any issues going on trips as a gay couple in crew, its solidly not bad. Much more of a collegiate atmosphere than Boy Scouts too, and no uniform requirements or competitions either!
It is, I rather like it. There is a 1 business day delay for your first transaction fyi, which is a reasonable fraud deterrent. All transactions thereafter between Zelle members are instant and free though!
Just curious, what does your SaaS do? Additionally, I've come to believe that even the most forward thinking banks and credit unions don't understand tech one bit, based on how poorly written most of their software is.
Lots of banks and Credit Unions have implemented Zelle in app, its the last gasp they have to compete against Venmo. The only upside to Zelle is essentially offering instant transfers for free, where Venmo makes you wait a few days or pay $0.25.
If Boise is happy to deal with an influx of Californians, they can have at it. I'd rather they go there than migrate up the West Coast, bringing their far right politics with them.
A year or so ago I was near San Diego, and turning on the radio I got an earful about how finding a new strongman to head the police department was the #1 duty of the city. Seemed absolutely ridiculous to me, but the culture down in Cali is that of beating down on the dirty poors, then acting surprised with the consequences like the hepatitis outbreak: https://www.cnn.com/2017/09/14/health/hepatitis-a-outbreak-s...
