Meet Kevin Paffrath | His Full Plan for Governor of California.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
if california had a strong leader who
cleaned up the problems in our state and
stopped wasting money
we could have no income tax for any
income earned
under 250 000 and finally make
california competitive again
but we've got some things to talk about
first why does california the fifth
largest economy in the world struggle
with crime
schooling homelessness and can't even
keep the power on or supply our farms
with enough
water the crime trend prompting a major
retailer to make a drastic
change we've learned target is cutting
its hours
after a spike in thefts every day
there's fires guns knives
crime there's a lot of crime here in san
francisco carrying handbags is of
organized retail theft
the number of homeless tents and
encampments has been skyrocketing
they've taken over everything and we're
concerned about the safety of our
employees
my name is kevin paffroth and i'm
running for governor to provide the
solutions we need
to end the [ __ ] that's happening in
our state
higher electricity bills periodic
rationing
and blackouts for millions of households
and
businesses for the most gridlocked city
in the world
very horrifying the wind and the fire
and the speed of it it just overtook
everybody why is this happening to our
beautiful state
it's not because of hard-working
californians who follow the rules and
pay their taxes no
it's because of the broken policies
of our government it's broken leadership
that leads to fragmented rules and
regulations that don't look
california as a whole we need a new
leader
to fix this mess so california
has implemented a lot of regulations
at the state level and also at the local
level
that makes it very difficult and very
expensive to build new housing
the beef that comes from the cattle it
feeds is the highest water use food
commonly available
drip and sprinkler irrigation can be
much more efficient but nancy told us
she's not been able to get the permits
needed to change
the irrigation style on the farm they've
handcuffed the lapd
and told no you're not going to enforce
anything because we don't want to offend
anybody
the insanity of the education system
where kids can't learn to read we
literally don't know how to read
but
by now you probably know that my name is
kevin paffra
all i did was take that money and plow
it he's 29 years old
a multi-millionaire in real estate and
the stock market
and is now probably worth almost 700 000
on a busy he's got 1.6 million followers
on his meet kevin youtube channel in our
research in our interviews and in our
studying
of making sure that we solve california
in the best way possible
he's got an ambitious one-year
five-point plan
to fix california the homelessness
schooling
poverty crime very very important then
we'll get into solving our traffic
crisis
and our housing crisis and he's running
for governor
as a democrat so i want to give back i
want to fix california
and make california a wonderful place to
live because it is a beautiful place to
live
we just have broken politics a democrat
challenging governor newsome in the
recall election
he's 29 year old kevin paffraff
how amazing thank you very much
paffroth is a southern california real
estate investor who's followed by
millions on youtube
and other social media platforms he just
completed nine rallies in 10 days across
the state he was in studio with us
tonight on the fox 11 news special
report but guess what
after 60 days of my governorship nobody
sleeps on the floor or streets of
california anymore
that ends in 60 days paphrath is an
internet personality
at the 29 years old you're the youngest
candidate for governor so far you've had
great success kevin pathrath is a real
estate broker
and fast track permits even for remodels
to which i say
yes meet kevin i appreciate that that
you have come up with
a lot of logical plans here there's more
to dig into i hope you come back on the
show kevin
but you might not know that i've been
together with my wife for
13 years i'm also a dad i have two
beautiful
young boys three and five jack and max
and i'm concerned about what the future
of california is going to look like for
them
there's still time to fix california for
them but quite frankly
we need emergency action to start
repairing california now
especially for those who are struggling
i'm
personally seeking to be your governor
to implement emergency action that will
streamline our ability
to solve homelessness fast to solve
housing traffic schooling and crime
problems that we have in the state
with a strong leader we can make massive
improvements and if you like what you
hear and see in this video
consider going to stopthebullship.com
support the campaign for the next one
million dollars that are donated to this
campaign
i will match one dollar of expenses
towards this campaign
that means if you donate 100 we'll have
200
dollars towards making this campaign as
successful as a movement as possible
because we need to work together to fix
california
the on-the-ground reality is more
representative of a charles dickens
novel
than a utopia it smells of urine
everywhere a socal shocker los angeles
once again takes top honors for the most
gridlocked city in the world
california's top marginal income tax
rate
is now 13.3 percent which is already one
of the highest in the nation
the legislature is actively discussing
raising it to 16.8 percent
i saw today there was a happiness index
put out
california remaining one of the happiest
states
uh for individuals to live in in the
united states of america so i don't
think we're gonna come back we're gonna
come roaring back
and i can assure you if i talk to you in
six months you're gonna be in a
completely
different place well governor gavin
newsom things have only gotten worse
since all of these clips but folks let's
talk a little bit more about me
problems that we have in the state and
solutions because i don't just like to
talk about problems
i actually like to provide solutions and
that is how a leader operates
let's get into it my background is in
law enforcement handling crime
and homelessness first hand while
balancing bureaucracy
i have an educational background in
economics accounting and political
science from the university of
california at los angeles
and for a living i teach wealth building
and financial education on youtube
and i know that the problems we have in
california are difficult
but they're very similar to my
background and i realize that all of
these
are interconnected for example why don't
we teach
financial education at our middle and
high schools don't we all deserve to
learn about
finance and building wealth by 18
shouldn't we be able to
graduate debt free for free at 18
with a career shouldn't adults
have a similar opportunity to get an
education
rather than be stuck in multiple minimum
wage jobs relying on the government just
to get by
folks one third
one out of every three californians
is on medi-cal relying on the government
just to get by it's not their fault
it's not the bureaucrats faults it's not
our business's faults and it's not our
union's faults it's not the californian
people's fault
it's the governor's fault it's the
broken leadership
that we have had in the last 24 years in
this state which it's no surprise that
governor gavin newsom has been
in politics leading politics in
california for the last
24 years just as another example
consider
70 of the homeless on our streets become
homeless
because of economic reasons due to
joblessness evictions
or poverty these are preventable issues
now unfortunately many people on our
streets then fall victim to mental
health issues and substance abuse
issues yet we never learn about
mental education in our schools we might
learn about physical education but how
about
mental education folks there's so many
things
so many common sense solutions that a
governor can
lead and implement in our state
currently
we have a governor who refuses to do any
of this
half of african americans in the state
of california roughly half of latino
families have no access to a checking
account
or an atm things we take for granted
they don't have a check what's wrong
with them
but what well because they don't they
don't have the resources to sock those
things away
why do we have them uh a lot of
different reasons but
but roughly half those families don't i
mean a lot of communities have
a lot of whites have these problems
that's not just black and hispanic no
but it but
why did you bring up black industry
because the magnitude is ominous but why
so many of them
it just happens to be just that's the
way god planned it
this is a very telling and dangerous
time in a lot of ways it's very
challenging
and uh it exposes a lot of things and
one of the things that exposes
i don't i don't particularly like the
way things are run here
we are leaving because this place has
become so horribly governed that if you
have the means
to get out you are going to leave we are
but the tip of the spear we are not the
only ones another blow to the bay area
companies
leaving town for much cheaper taxes and
a cheaper cost of living this time
it's oracle hewlett packard the latest
tech company to leave silicon valley now
underway in beverly hills
in upscale santa monica devastating
destruction as
looters attacked business after business
hey guys you see this governor gavin
newsom to deploy
the national guard and just minutes ago
we heard that the governor has declared
a state of emergency for
los angeles why haven't you brought
young people
into the leadership with proper
leadership
i believe we can solve most if not all
of the problems that we have
in our state see i personally believe
that
in general government should stay out of
our lives
we should be allowed to work freely with
minimal interference
receive safety and proper infrastructure
and in return we pay our taxes but
unfortunately
as more of us put our heads up and look
at what our government has done
we realize that the problems in our
state are getting worse by government
action
not better and that creates resentment
it creates this feeling of why am i
still
here over the last 10 years
we've had 2.4 million taxpayers leave
our state to places like texas florida
vegas tennessee idaho
and they're leaving because folks are
looking up to see what their government
has done
and are disgraced by it it's not fair
now our governor argues ah the
population decline isn't that bad but
see unfortunately the governor misleads
us
a lot of folks are being born in
california and a lot of folks are coming
to california for schooling
but unfortunately both of these are
draws on our economy
children and students generally take
from the economy before they give back
to the economy
the people who are leaving are small
medium and large businesses
and taxpayers and so it's no surprise
that homelessness is getting worse that
crime is getting worse that housing
affordability is getting
worse the median home price in
california is eight hundred
thousand dollars regulations
and taxes aren't getting better they're
getting worse
and the last 24 years have been
particularly rough
governor gavin newsom also happens to
have been in politics
and a leader in california's politics
for the last 24 years
and this is why folks it's time for a
new leader
it's time we stop the [ __ ] it's time
for change vote for kevin paphrath for
governor
more than 500 california wildfires
new encampments have been popping up
throughout l.a in the last five months
the number of people living outside
appears to have multiplied
there are now thousands of crimes a year
like this one
in which the suspects are homeless one
in six restaurants will not survive the
pandemic
people are just bailing there's a mass
exodus out of california right now
you can quibble about the guidelines et
cetera et cetera but the spirit
of what i'm preaching all the time was
contradicted
this is heartbreaking to see this is not
the kind of california i want to leave
my children and future generations
this is not the representation that we
should be for
the country or the world as the fifth
largest economy
now you might not know this but my
family is german
germany is the fourth largest economy in
the world
with a strong california we shouldn't be
worried about
homelessness or having enough water or
having enough power
we should be focused on becoming the
fourth largest economy in the world and
kicking
germany's butt by growing our economy
not shrinking our economy not decaying
but by growing and folks i believe that
my policies
will bring us exactly this kind of
growth
now there are a few things that you
should know about me first
no more lockdowns i do not agree
with lockdowns i also believe in
vaccines
for covid and masks as a choice
as a personal choice now i do believe
in regulations that might require
science-based hepa filtration
and ventilation requirements for
businesses to remain open
but i don't believe in lockdowns and
mandates now i need you to also know
as we get into my policies that i'm not
a far
leftist and i'm not a far rightist in
fact most people who learn about me
don't even know if i'm a democrat or a
republican that's because my policies
and my solutions
are california solutions they're neutral
middle of the road solutions and i seek
to provide those solutions
with both democrats and republicans but
let's be real
a republican governor is going to get
sandbagged
for the next year after this recall
election a republican governor is not
going to get
anything done between a transition of
power at the end of 2021
and the next election in 2022.
i am running as a democrat i have been a
registered democrat
since 18 and i believe with a super
majority of democrats in congress
and a leader that understands how
important and interconnected our
problems are
and will treat our problems as a state
of emergency i believe and i know
that we can fix california and we can
make substantial progress
within this next year now before we get
into the specifics
i want you to consider voting for kevin
paffraff
on this next california ballot in the
recall election
consider this if you're a republican and
you want to see things get done
vote yes on recall and vote yes on kevin
paffrey
if you're a democrat and you do not
support the recall
then vote kevin paffrath as your backup
option
if you are a democrat and you are voting
for the recall
then also vote yes on kevin paffreth for
governor
much like the economic inequality of our
roman ancestors
california now suffers the highest
cost-adjusted poverty rate in the
country
it also has one of the nation's highest
ratios
which measures the inequality of wealth
distribution
from the richest to poorest residents
and the disparity is growing the buckets
that we use
are urinate bowel movement there's
nowhere around here
to use the bathroom and that's hard on a
person
california's level of inequality is
greater than that of neighboring mexico
and closer to central american countries
like guatemala
and honduras it is true that
california's gdp
per capita is far higher than the
central american countries
but the state has slowly morphed into a
low-wage economy
over the past decade 80 percent of the
state's jobs
have paid under the median wage even at
some of the state's most prestigious
companies like google
many lower and even mid-level employees
live in mobile home parks others
sleep in their cars
as a result california's population
is for the first time in its modern
history
falling millennials specifically when
they start having families
are heading to other states a process
that has been accelerated
by the pandemic
californian officials try to cover up
these shortcomings
by pointing to the huge capital gains
tax receipts
they receive from large tech companies
and those derived
from initial public offerings together
these have created an enormous
tax windfall that allows the state to
enjoy
an annual surplus even in hard times
in my opinion a true leader should never
mislead you
our governor said that we had a 78
billion dollar surplus yet didn't tell
you that almost half of that came from
the federal government allocated
to our schools but then he spent this
surplus
partially to buy votes and now we are
actually going 12 billion dollars more
into folks should we have a surplus
and then be going into debt i'm tired of
being misled
it's like when the governor tweets that
because we are roaring back
we can forgive 5.2 billion dollars of
rent via
a 5.2 billion rent relief program yet
the governor doesn't tell you
that 2.6 billion or 50 percent of that
came from donald trump and the 600
stimulus check package in december
another 2.2 billion dollars came from
joe biden in the 1400
stimulus check package that means 4.8
billion
or over 92 percent of the rent relief
money that we are giving away in
california
actually came from the federal
government not from california that
means we are not roaring
back because of gavin newsom we are
roaring back in spite of gavin newsom
but this rent relief money as of may
and this money the governor has had
since december and february
as of may and june only 2.3 percent of
the rent relief money has actually been
distributed
to californians in need during an
emergency
as of july only about six percent
of the money has been distributed this
is a disgrace
during an emergency you would think that
during an emergency
money could be distributed quickly but
our governor
again squanders his duties
it could happen to anybody it could
happen to anybody
and it's just hard tens of thousands of
people living on the streets
they've taken over everything and we're
concerned about the safety of our
employees
the number of homeless tents and
encampments along the world famous
venice boardwalk and nearby streets
has been skyrocketing every day there's
fires guns knives
crime there's a lot of crime here it's
gotten to the point where my girlfriend
does not feel safe to walk down to the
grocery store at night because there are
people shouting
and throwing things on the sidewalk as
they make their way down the street
here's a google street view image from
september of 2014.
and here is the exact same spot now
just a few years later in 2019 there
were nearly 60
000 homeless people living in l.a county
in 2011 there were less than 40
000 so we've increased by 50 in less
than 10 years
these are people many of whom are
mentally ill or drug addicted but thanks
to local regulations and legal consent
decrees the police have been told they
are literally not allowed to move them
to dry out facilities or do anything
with the trash that now screws every
sidewalk and underpass and overpass
and embankment in la every single one
and is now not
asked to move right they use the street
as their restroom
exactly and they've handcuffed the lapd
and told now you're not going to enforce
anything because we don't want to offend
anybody
counterproductive and irresponsible
decisions from
the board of supervisors the mayor of la
and the l.a counties or the la city
council each and every
person played a part you shouldn't have
to worry about
where we're gonna stay tonight you know
the white house reports nearly half of
the country's unsheltered homeless
people live on the streets of california
and a growing number of middle and
low-income people are moving out of
state
with the majority of those leaving
reporting an annual income under a
hundred thousand dollars
whether they are people at the car wash
baggers at the supermarket
attendees at the rest homes and what are
we doing
to assure ourselves that we'll be able
to keep
that critical part of our employment
infrastructure those folks at the bottom
because we're toast without it folks i
can solve
homelessness now i know that is a bold
claim but i
also understand that homelessness is
caused by economic reasons mental health
reasons substance abuse reasons
it's caused by crime and over policing
the lack of opportunity for folks who
get out of
high school or college the lack of
opportunity for those who get out of our
prison systems
i understand the causes i understand
the solutions because i've worked with
homeless communities i've been on the
ground with homeless communities i've
been on the law enforcement side and
i've worked with the professionals
folks we can solve it we need emergency
action day one from the governor's
action that is going to coordinate a
homeless response professionally
conducted with the help of non-profits
and businesses
to end our homeless crisis we are going
to create 80 emergency facilities
throughout the state
and there are plenty of vacant
commercial office buildings or
commercial buildings thanks to governor
newsom's lockdown policies
that we can utilize to centralize
support
for food mental health education
substance abuse but let me make this
very very crystal clear
after 60 days of my administration no
one
will be living on our streets of
california and that's because people
aren't living on the streets they're
dying on our streets more people are
dying on our streets from homelessness
than gun violence that is a lot of
people dying especially
when you have a governor who is obsessed
with more gun control measures
which at the same time those gun control
measures just lead
to more gun sales and ultimately the
people conducting crime in our state
aren't using california rostered
handguns
or california compliant weapons anyway
it's ironic
or not but the reality is we need to
centralize support
now while there's a lot of work to do to
make sure our plan is perfect anything
is better than
spending five thousand dollars per month
on a single tent for a single homeless
person like san francisco is doing
while at the same time they're spending
twenty thousand
dollars on a trash can francisco's board
of supervisors is looking to replace
its green trash canisters and the ones
under consideration
cost as much as twenty thousand dollars
each or
it's even better than what los angeles
is doing which is just
let's hand homeless cell phones now it's
important to know that the facilities
we're going to build
are going to be completely optional
think javits center style
partitioned bedrooms with centralized
canteens and support for folks there's
nothing on this whole floor
but monday morning it went from nothing
to what you see out there at least on
this part
by friday there was a thousand beds
downstairs and now we're building
another two thousand
so in two weeks we're going to build a
3000 bed facility
but there's one thing californians will
no longer be allowed to do
and that is sleep on our streets and
we're going to have a transition period
we are going to utilize whatever powers
we can
to transition our homeless communities
to make sure the homeless communities
that we have
can finally trust their government again
in fact we're going to work with
the mayors and presidents of homeless
communities to make sure we solve
homelessness
correctly once and for all
customs and border protection say
they've recently seen the highest number
of apprehensions along the southwestern
border in two decades
with nearly a hundred and eighty
thousand in april alone
a 34 increase from the last surge
in the spring of 2019 when you see these
rural drop-offs occur
what does that say about the system well
it would say that the system is bogged
down
see folks ask me why is illegal
immigration
so bad into our country well it's
because our
legal immigration system is a failure
it is horrible and it is broken under my
leadership california will be the first
state
to finally work with the federal
government and figure out how to
appropriately
streamline immigration limited
quantities proper quantities into the
united states
with individuals who can sustain
themselves without relying on social
services
we need a governor who can fix the
problems we have in the state
the state of california is currently
facing the worst drought
in 1 200 years
last month the water level in lake
oroville the state's second largest
reservoir
was so low that hundreds of houseboats
were hauled out
because there wasn't enough water to
hold them for the first time ever
the state has stopped providing water to
farmers in some areas
our water allocation in this area is
zero apparently these trees haven't
received any water
at all this year california's
agricultural output
could fall by three and a half billion
dollars this year
costs across the nation are already up
attributed at least partly to the
drought
with more increases expected down the
line as crop yields come in this fall
the price for a single avocado could
jump by 28 percent
the lack of water also means fire the
dried out vegetation
became fuel to feed at that time the
largest fire on record
the thomas fire in southern california
which forced over one hundred thousand
people to evacuate their homes
the state's grid might experience
widespread
power outages and suffer from damaged
power lines
in essence this situation highlights
this
is gonna be a long hard summer of higher
electricity bills
periodic rationing and blackouts for
millions of households
and businesses this year the largest
reservoir in the us has fallen to a
record low depth
from space satellite photos tell the
story of how the drought has robbed the
lake of its glory from its 750 miles of
shoreline
a deep ring of bleached rock shows just
how far the water has dropped in the
last 20 years
and is liable to keep on falling this is
an example of flood irrigation
one of the oldest and most common
irrigation methods which distributes
water over the soil by allowing it to
flow downhill with gravity
now there is a beautiful simplicity to
it but it's actually the least efficient
way to irrigate as much of the water
either evaporates away or seeps into the
soil out of reach of the plant's roots
and on top of that alfalfa is a very
thirsty crop
which means the beef that comes from the
cattle it feeds is the highest water use
food commonly available
drip and sprinkler irrigation can be
much more efficient but nancy told us
she's not been able to get the permits
needed to change the irrigation style on
the farm here's a satellite picture of
the state from january 2013.
and this is from january of this year
shouldn't the fifth largest economy in
the world have enough water
folks we can solve this if we spend our
money
wisely rather than on things like
forgiving traffic tickets or on
kickbacks so that the governor can try
to buy votes and loyalty
we could be solving our water crisis
just as an example and this is just one
example when i become governor
we are going to use the best strategy
for solving our water crisis
and it could be a combination of things
from more reservoirs to desalinization
or the idea that we've liked a lot
recently
which has been building an aqueduct from
los angeles
to the mississippi river paying for
cheap
clean water sharing the cost of
construction with other
water starved states like new mexico and
arizona along the way
and doubling the flow of water to our
colorado river
so we can finally end our water shortage
folks there are common sense solutions
we just need a leader
who stops wasting money and instead
prioritizes spending appropriately
this is how we can create new jobs and
solve
problems instead of focusing on buying
votes
remember if you like what you're hearing
so far the next 1 million dollars
donated to the campaign at
stopthebullship.com
will be matched personally by me i will
match one dollar
donations with another dollar of
expenses
towards the campaign that means if you
donate a hundred dollars we get 200
of buying power for the campaign see the
problem we have in our country
is politicians have this obsession with
being career politicians
i'm not looking to be a career
politician i'm not getting into politics
for money
in fact i will not accept the governor's
salary
at all that will go directly back to the
state
of california the taxpayers don't have
to pay me
i want to give back to california and i
want to serve
but we need common sense and we start
common sense on day one by electing
kevin paffraff a new report out today
on california's deadliest wildfire ever
the inferno north of sacramento killed
85 people destroyed 18 thousand homes
and buildings
the sonoma county d.a has filed criminal
charges against pg e over its role in
starting the 2019 kincaid fire
a huge lurking culprit power lines
power lines played a major role in the
fires in northern california in 2017
power lines can come down strong winds
or trees can blow into power lines
that's an understatement cal fire
investigators say electrical lines and
equipment sparked
16 of the big blazes that killed 44
people
and burned a quarter million acres in
northern california in october 2017
and cal fire linked 15 of those 16
specifically to power company pg e
now when i first heard these stories i
thought oh my goodness our utility
companies the monopolies the government
enables
are creating fires they should be held
accountable and as they should be
but we also need to realize that when
you point one finger three fingers point
back and when the government points the
finger
at the utilities the government is also
a cause of the problem
see the government refuses to allow
the renewal of transmission lines
infrastructure systems
natural gas power plants to increase
efficiency at them
unless anything that is done is one
hundred percent
green now look i am all for green energy
but i also realize that green energy is
a transition
green energy will take time we can
incentivize green energy
but when we mandate green energy
100 of the time for new infrastructure
projects
before we're ready what happens we're
left with
power lines that are 20 years older than
their useful life expectancy
power lines that snap and cause fires
we're left with
1980s and 1990s and natural gas
facilities
that can't function properly during peak
hours
and so we have blackouts that doesn't
mean we need to build
new natural gas power plants but it does
mean that
if regulations were loosened slightly
and standards were elevated
we could actually increase the
efficiency of our natural gas production
eight times today if we simply
authorized the increase of this
efficiency
but because it's not 100 green the
government says no
so in other words the government
handcuffs
our existing infrastructure system which
is leading
to more fires more damage and more
blackouts
this is not the way to live in
california and again that's why we've
got to vote
yes on kevin paffrey for governor so we
can bring common-sense solutions to the
problems we have in the state
and at the same time wouldn't it make
sense to properly fund a cal
fire so that we can actually conduct the
proper controlled burns
to prevent forest fires in partnership
with the federal government which owns a
lot of land in california
and guess what controlled burns not only
are they better for the environment they
protect our endangered species
but they only cost 32 an acre
whereas fighting a wildfire costs up to
1500
dollars an acre we need common sense we
have to end the [ __ ]
when governor newsom recently defended
his economic track record
he predictably pointed to the new round
of ipos
to assure us that the state's growing
billionaire class
is doing quote pretty damn well
yet newsom currently faces a recall
campaign
for in spite of his optimism the
governor's inconsistent
rhetoric has angered large numbers of
the state's population
and new details are emerging that appear
to indicate california governor gavin
newsom's new 3.7 million dollar mansion
was gifted to him under highly
questionable circumstances
attorneys and legal experts say being
gifted such a property through an llc
is a huge warning sign for tax and
regulatory agencies
and likely indicates either tax fraud
money laundering or a payoff or bribe
hp is moving its enterprise division
headquarters to houston and many others
are following
oracle founded in the 70s alongside
apple and atari
announced in december that it's
relocated its headquarters to austin
palantir is relocating to denver elon
musk moved from los angeles to austin
where tesla is building its next
gigafactory
what really is surprising is the really
major big companies that
have put down routes here are the ones
they're leaving
the mom and pops are going as well but
when they leave they take 20 workers or
30 workers with them
they're not taking thousands of workers
with them and they're not taking
elon musk other major companies that
have moved their headquarters out of
california in recent years include
toyota charles schwab
nestle and jamba juice a 2018 study
found that
1800 companies left in 2016 alone
relocating mostly to texas
we have high taxes high housing costs
cost of living in california is about 50
percent higher than the median state
public services are not being delivered
so we've never really had that
all of that combination occurring as
we've had
in the past and we've never had
alternative places
to move to so for example now in texas
and austin texas
there's a big tech hub there the flight
of businesses out of our state is
exactly why i propose
a future schools solution future schools
are a combination of
high school colleges vocational schools
and schools that provide a financial
education so that way folks at 16 have a
choice to go to a future school
if they want to but future schools will
also be available for adults
and these future schools are going to be
very special because we are going to
use future schools as a way to work
with large medium and small businesses
so that way businesses are telling us
what we should teach in our future
schools
not bureaucrats coming up with
miscellaneous curricula
then when businesses tell us what they
want us to teach our students
small medium and large size businesses
all size businesses throughout
california
then when we provide those workers we're
going to require
that these businesses stay in california
and stop
leaving california if you want us to
provide you high-quality
strong hard-working californian workers
then you better stay and that is what i
stand for
but i also stand for letting homeless
folks
and criminals in jails access separated
but still the same concept
separated facilities separate future
schools so that way folks who are
homeless
have an opportunity to get educated get
a career
and get financially well off that way
folks who are criminals
have an opportunity to get out of jail
and actually get placed in a job because
they went to a future school and they
can get a career folks the starting
salary for a programmer
is 74 000 to 120 000 the starting salary
for a
nurse in this state is over 50 000 none
of these people
are on medi-cal or requiring government
aid
if we properly invest in our
californians
people don't have to resort to being
homeless they don't have to resort to
crime
and we can grow our economy and keep our
businesses here
it's just common sense we just need to
stop
the [ __ ] i remember i interviewed
gavin newsom personally back when i was
on
la radio on local and he said that the
high-speed bullet train was a bad idea
if you had your brothers would you kill
the thing i would take the dollars
and redirect it to other more pressing
infrastructure needs
then of course he got into power and it
was ah this high speed bullet train what
a wonderful idea
ah the high speed rail so i never seek
to ruffle feathers but i
will always be transparent with you if
you ask me where i stand on something
i would rather tell you either i don't
know and i will get back to you
or i'd rather tell you exactly how i
feel even if that's not what you want to
hear
because i will never stab you in the
back i want you
to have a transparent governor this is
why i believe
having somebody with a lot of experience
educating on
youtube and on social media is exactly
what our government needs
a transparent governor a governor who
can show you what's going on behind the
scenes
so you can have a say in what goes on
behind closed doors
because we need to open the doors we
need to let the light in we need
transparency again
let's talk about where i stand on the
high-speed rail the high-speed rail is
suggested to be good for our economy
and for our environment but let's be
real the high-speed rail is estimated
to break even not in five years not in
10 years not in 15 years
but the environmental costs to build it
and the money it takes to build it
will likely take over 71
years to break even folks would you
invest in a stock like tesla
or amc if somebody told you it was going
to take
71 years to break even on your
investment
of course not if that's what our
government is doing
the reality is with 100 billion dollars
we could wave taxes on
all californians making less than 250
000
dollars for three years folks the
high-speed rail is estimated to cost
over 100 billion dollars
do would you rather have a high-speed
choo-choo train for a hundred billion
dollars or no income taxes
under 250 000 for the first three years
come on folks
it's common sense even if we were to
spend the money on
infrastructure to reduce our traffic
problems why don't we spend the money
dealing with our traffic issues where we
actually have traffic
the high speed rail is estimated to cost
125 million dollars per mile
underground tunnels which are mass
transit
bus systems and our commuter cars could
use
cost about 10 million dollars per mile
folks that means instead of spending
money on a high-speed rail where we
don't really have a traffic issue
we could be investing in tunnels where
we spend
a fraction of the money on actually
solving a traffic issue that we really
have
think about it if we invested and built
an optional
variable direction toll road underneath
our busy highways
like the 5 the 405 or the 5
we can actually solve traffic by
providing folks an
optional path if they're willing to pay
for it now it's optional that's because
we still have the freeway which will be
completely free but if they want to go
faster
and uh skip traffic they could use a
tunnel system
our buses would be allowed to use these
tunnel systems as well
increasing the efficacy of our mass
transit they're safer in earthquakes
than above ground transportation
and think about it kind of like being
underwater in an ocean with waves
and they're much cheaper and we can
build them where we need them
folks these are the kinds of common
sense solutions that we need
now i'm not saying that 100 tunnels are
the solution to everything
but they are a solution that is better
than what we're doing now
and that's the kind of governor we need
somebody who's going to lead with
realistic solutions and actually be a
leader that's why we have to vote for
kevin paffrath
and stop the [ __ ] how did the bay
area's housing crunch get this bad
the number of people in california who
can afford to buy a home
continues to fall the southern
california real estate
market is hotter than ever uh the state
is dealing
with a major growing housing crisis this
has been a political football really
in the state for for many years many
people are unable to afford
sky high rents or pay their mortgages
and thousands are living on the streets
he says state county and local leaders
need to take bold steps
local governments could zone more area
for multi-family housing
they could make the permitting process
for multi-family
housing easier before the housing crisis
gets worse
so california has implemented
a lot of regulations at the state level
and also at the local level that makes
it
very difficult and very expensive to
build new housing
and the fundamental reason is we we just
simply don't build enough
and what we do build is very very
expensive
why we have such a high housing prices
here the first mistake
is to allow virtually anyone to file
a lawsuit against any development
if it has or allegedly has adverse
environmental consequences do the
parties that file them do they make
money from these lawsuits they
absolutely make money
there are some legitimate environmental
lawsuits but they serve
to further the interests of these
environmental
organizations have we reached a point
where a city like san francisco
is not livable anymore we have reached
that point and what can
people do to change this i think the
message is don't let don't let them kick
the can anymore
force them to face up what the realities
are california is
incredibly expensive it's become
unaffordable nearly 40 percent of
californians are living
at or near poverty and as a humane
society this is something we just
shouldn't tolerate
real estate hits near and dear to me
because real estate is how i began
building my wealth first as a real
estate agent
then broker than real estate investor
and i've never
evicted a tenant and i work with
everybody
to try to make sure everybody can build
wealth that works with me
but the reality is we have a lack of
homes in this state
that's why the median home price is
eight hundred thousand dollars
that's unacceptable it's unlivable what
we need
are not 482 building regulations
that is 482 different building and
safety departments we need to streamline
our building and safety process
so we can speed up construction and let
the free market help us solve our
housing crisis i'm not saying completely
remove government
from housing but we need to streamline
the process
speed it up and make it reasonable again
so that way we can redevelop our
abandoned strip malls or facilities that
we could turn into town homes or condos
so that we can build new communities
next to solar and wind farms
so rather than burning off or excess
solar or wind energy we can actually
supply that energy
to new communities and help change our
climate
future by positively affecting climate
change with net
negative communities that is having
communities built near solar and wind
farms
so we have thousands of new homes and we
have communities that
create more energy than they use we can
do these things
by streamlining regulation while at the
same time still
respecting local ordinances to make sure
we maintain the beauty of each
individual city we can do this
but we need a strong leader who realizes
that
current law doesn't work governor newsom
just cheered the signing of
sb7 this was a housing efficiency bill
well when i read the bill i was shocked
to find out that the housing efficiency
bill would only streamline the
environmental review process if you're
building a property worth at least
15 million dollars so in other words
anyone building
less expensive homes is not getting
streamlined
housing regulation via sb7 which
governor newsome just cheered as
something that would streamline housing
regulation
but when i read the bill further i
realized that these developers with 15
million
plus projects can apply for streamlined
permits
through the governor's office in other
words we have a governor
who's consolidating power in his office
while making the problems for us normal
californians
worse this is unacceptable
it's time for a change it's time to stop
the [ __ ]
and it's time to vote for kevin pafroth
for governor let's get right to live
pictures of looting that is still going
on
chopper 5 is over the walmart store in
san leandro
where people have been running in and
out of a side door with whatever they
can carry
out and now we are seeing some smoke
coming out of the store but police are
just now moving
in and we will certainly keep an eye on
this
because of what they described as roving
bands of looters
and rioters
but tonight they accuse police of racial
profiling
there exists racism in our criminal
justice
system here's just a quick example
traffic stops
are studied and researched to
disproportionately affect
blacks and hispanics leading to over
policing of those already
disproportionately affected by poverty
and we already know that if you are in
poverty
you have a twice likelihood of being a
victim of violent
crime folks when we start connecting the
dots
we realize that crime economics
poverty and racism and policing are all
interconnected and so this is why we
have to solve
all of the issues from why we have
poverty education
homelessness why we have issues in these
areas
but also realizing that you might know
that
racial profiling is illegal but did you
know
that vehicular profiling is legal
that is officers can profile vehicles
that potentially
look black or look hispanic folks
governor gavin newsom bankrupted
one-third of california's restaurants
disproportionately affecting blacks and
hispanics blacks and hispanics
and all californians should vote for
somebody who understands that the issues
in our society
specifically surrounding crime and
punishment
revolve around many complicated issues
any leader that can connect the dots
between all of these and solve them
is somebody that you should vote for
here's an example of how to solve the
issues
first we need future schools that teach
financial education and give folks an
opportunity
even adults an opportunity to get
educated even if that means
paying students who are over 18
to go to future schools two thousand
dollars per month
we would only be spending forty eight
thousand dollars in a two year period
investing in californians to make sure
they don't go back to crime to make sure
they don't end up homeless to make sure
they're not desperate and in despair and
in poverty
but instead have a financial education
and a career via future schools
and then guess what we don't end up
spending 120
000 a year babysitting someone in jail
because that's what we do right now
doesn't it make sense to invest in
californians
rather than waste money over spending in
our jails
we need community policing we need more
transparent policing
we need faster release of body camera
footage and body cameras that are
actually on
all of the time not turned on
when desired to be turned on but we also
need funding
for better training and the funding that
does exist
needs to be better monitored and more
transparent
and so it's together with community
policing transparency budget oversight
and education that we can slowly start
undoing the disaster
of criminal justice in our state
because right now we have a governor who
just turns a blind eye to crime
get this in the mojave desert illegal
cannabis
farms are tapping our fire hydrants
for precious water to farm their illegal
crops
eighty percent of cannabis sales in
california
are illegal five years after california
voters
voted to make cannabis sales legal it's
literally been a full five-year plan
and we still have 80 percent of our
cannabis sales illegal
why well it's because of overbearing
regulations and overbearing permits
and overbearing taxation that makes it
much easier
to conduct an illegal grow pay a 500
fine in the event that you were caught
and just continue to grow illegally
this is leading to our fire hydrants
being tapped
and illegally robbed of our precious
water
yet what is the government doing
california decided rather than
either streamline regulations and
simplify the legalization process
or to actually enforce crime california
just decided you know what
let's just remove the fire hydrants
because why actually solve the
underlying issue
folks it's time to stop the [ __ ] we
have to vote for kevin paffroth
for governor and bring common sense back
stop the [ __ ] now if you've liked
what you've heard here
please go to stopthebullship.com
donate support the campaign and also
keep an eye on stopthebullship.com
for locations where we will be
distributing yard signs
flyers stickers bumper stickers business
cards you name it
we need to get the message out we need
to do so together
we don't have 30 million dollars to
fight gavin newsom but we've got a
really good set of seed funding and as a
result i'm matching every single
donation that comes
into this campaign up to an additional
one million dollars
dollar for dollar so if you donate a
hundred dollars
i will be able to put 200 into this
campaign
let's make this a movement stop the
[ __ ]
get gavin newsom out and let's fix
california and make a california
competitive make california the model
state
that it should be vote yes on recall
and yes for kevin paphrath for
