SF re-examines procurement process after business ban on 30 states backfires

- For seven years, San Francisco kept a business ban on states that would defy the values of the city. But the plan backfired and in the end - the ban hurt San Franciscans more than the other way around. abc7ne.ws/3IlUPGt

Imagine being so intolerant you put sanctions on yourself.
Stupid. I believe the word here is stupid.
Yes, ironically enough the products probably used parts from all around the world namely China where there is huge Uyghur human rights violations.
Progressivism is a disease, a hilariously regressive disease for those of us watching from afar. It would be even funnier if it weren't destroying our country as we speak. Get prepared with water, food, and supplies for the rough times ahead. Best to you all, even you Progressives that vote for crime, drugs, homelessness, and insanity.
I hate myself so badly....
All while claiming you’re the only tolerant ones.
This is exactly why those 30 states should continue refusing to do business with San Francisco.
They won’t
Businesses value profit over your feelings
@@emilyfeagin2673those business have been doing great since why jump into doing business now?
or they can all collude and charge SF outrageous amount for services.
@@emilyfeagin2673 Not based on what Hollywood's been doing lately. 🤣
Yep!
This is the dumbest thing ive ever heard. No wonder businesses are escaping california.
California for California
It that stupid city and Sacramento
who would have thought that an unconstitutional act such as banning citizens from associating with certain other people could have such disastrous effects.
I am pretty sure the ban only applies to city contracts -- regular citizens may still freely purchase goods from companies in those states... unless those goods are firearms, of course.
@inoroth2001 city employees are just people with official titles working for the people doing the people's business. a city ban is just a ban against citizens to the citizens' hurt.
@@inoroth2001 When people are 'pretty sure' of something, I know they're not sure of anything. Did you read the whole set of rules?
They push inclusivity by banning half the country try. It’s toddlers saying you aren’t my friend if you play with Johnny. Does this city have anyone who knows wtf they are doing? I have no sympathy for them. Aren’t they tired of being embarrassed over and over by legislations that keep digging them deeper?
Freedom of association is a constitutional right nobody seems to know
Sf is a public toilet
But a locally sourced public toilet, so they have that going for them.
Why in the world would ANYONE want to go to crime haven drug den capital of the world. It looks horrible on the news. No thanks! Ever.
You think?? 🚽🧻
Bring your own t.p.
It’s a shame I remember when it was a great time. 2004-2008
Most of the country doesn’t care what San Francisco thinks. Shocker.
Like a friend told me, its the land of fruits and nuts..
Bay area people, the whole nation laughs at you, I mean they laugh at California in general but a lot of it is targeted on you.
Unless you continuously vote for the same bureaucrats that have caused this.
This is a prime example of what happens when you try to bully others into adhering to your narrow-minded ideology by excluding those with different viewpoints.
So they effectively created sanctions on themselves and hurt absolutely no one outside SF.
😂😂😂 A thing of karmic beauty!
YEP! They can keep doing it for all I care....
Yeah, it's funny how the language used in this report is "for a company to be allowed to do business with San Francisco," when the reality is that the law only applies TO San Francisco. The real scenario is that these things must be true "for San Francisco to be allowed" to do business with those companies.
Like the report says, their competition was easier and cheaper to do business with, so they would just lose out. There was no upside to this.
Woke eventually eats itself
BINGO.. 😂😂😂😂😅😅🤣😂🤣😂👍👍🤷🤷🤷🤦🤦
I like how sf restricts its law abiding citizens while thieves do whatever they want.
"Liberal"-ism
Laws are only designed for the average citizens😂
Not just San Francisco actually, basically crime pays in all of America
the biggest thieves live inside of city hall, not outside of it.
@@redeyedmongoose2963Not in Red areas of the country. Basically anywhere outside a large city, they will actually arrest and jail you.
The fact that they have a "Department of Homelessness" says it all.
And its only gotten worse since they created that department. Almost as if they creating job security.
@@BillyraycyrusIII "Almost as if they creating job security."
Somebody labeled it the Homeless Industrial Complex. If the government is willing to pump billions into a problem (often of it's own making) there will be a line of people willing to skim that money.
Illinois and Idaho were banned? F*ck San Francisco then, more corn and potatoes for the rest of us.

It will never be the place it was .
This is a perfect example of how the woke overreach and self destruct.
what a disgustingly smug city. Instead of worrying about ppl’s values in other states, worry about all the problems in your backyard.
Back yard? Man you're too generous. Their problems are in the house which has avalanched into their front yard and onto the street.
Just condemn the place already.
Yes! And how have any gay people been prevented from voting ? And showing ID is not racist. They don’t want voter ID because it would make doing voter fraud more difficult.
those government officials probably took a cut of the money, by guaranteeing their friends who owned the companies providing the goods and services to San Francisco. it's corruption and bribery, masquerading as being pro-LGBTQ.
@@sorbabaric1 I learned a long time ago that people on the far left are full of faux outrage, not at things that are actually happening but at their own projections about what those who they view as their political opponents are doing.
😝LOVE "disgustingly SMUG!"

But isn't this what they wanted? It's certainly what they vote for.

We just need to keep San Francisco out of our SF

Those 30 states should add a fee on all SF transactions.
I'm not saying I'd be unhappy to see that but; "interstate commerce"?
@@benjaminshropshire2900 - Why apply that restriction to the 30 states but not the city trying to hurt them? Oh right, because you're a leftist.
@@benjaminshropshire2900 IC has no limitations on companies or even states charging fees for transport or out of state sales. The many blue states have actually been doing that for a while now and the courts have upheld it so there is an insurmountable amount of federal case law. They made the rope and tied the 13 wrap knot themselves. It's almost like people should consider their "enemy" using their weapons against them before establishing said weapons.
@@ryuknightofflame I'll totally grant companies charging whatever for whatever not being an IC issue. And if a state is party to the transaction... I'd expect they could do the same. But can a state require private companies to charge more? Can they tax or add fees to the transaction directly?
As for selling the enemy rope; I kinda wish more conservatives would take the lesson to heart. I've seen a *lot* of proposals for "what to do to the left" that open the door for the same to be done to person making the proposal and that person seems totally oblivious to that risk.
@@benjaminshropshire2900 It wouldn't be interstate because San Francisco showed with its own bans that trade between one city and an entire state isn't under the same category as between states as a whole. They opened this can of worms, now they have to lay in it.
Now that the ban is lifted, those states should institute their own ban on San Francisco.
Quid pro quo
That’s what I was thinking
Yes... I'm in!
I'm from S.D. and I approve this message
If I was a business I wouldn't do business with them because they compromised their values and integrity for money 😂 what 🤡
All those states should now refuse to do business with San Francisco. 😂
Note to self-never live in one of the 20 states whose values align with SF
Imagine when everyone outside of SF had no idea about SFs ban
I had know idea. No wonder no business wants to move there.
Nor cared lol
It's like if Canada was to go on strike
Lol I had to re-watch the first 20 seconds 5 times to make sure I heard that right. Literally had zero clue...
I'm from the bay area and not even I head about it, tho I always avoid downtown SF at all costs
Imagine being so inclusive your first point of business is to figure out who to exclude.
Classic! 😂
That statement is their motto
Well that's the tolerance paradox. You should not tolerate intolerance. Otherwise the intolerant will reign one day and you have no tolerance. WW2 Germany is a prime example
Absolutely. But that's what the lefty liberals do everywhere. Their credo is how open, and accepting they are while banning anyone who doesn't agree with them.
That is the way of the Marxist. Inclusivity to the point of exclusion. Solving “victim hood with violence creating more victims.
A “great blue state” said nobody ever
Well said!!!
The whole state is major loser state.
Look at the Super Tuesday Senate race for Feinstein's seat. Republican Steve Garvey is neck-in-neck with Adam Schiff on lefty home turf. There's a lot of us normal people living here under the boot, more than you realize. But we're trying.

It's tough to run a city when you're outraged about everything.
When you value virtue signaling more than effective governance. No surprise given the state SF is in really.
@arsnova1321 its a shame too. It's such a beautiful city with great weather, culture and architecture. What a waste. Liberals take all the ass out of kick ass.
Worse yet it’s all fake outrage aimed to divide people for no good reason. The sheep swallowed the bs without question.
Except failed social and political agendas created by adhering to communist and socialist ideologies.
@@libertybutcherblocks more like taking the "kick" out of it then. Then all you're left with is farts.
None of the places SF was trying to spite even thinks about SF, but they're living in SF's head rent-free. I find it interesting that it ended up costing them in the end, and has forced them to reconsider. This is what happens when you live your life with so much spite. Nothing wrong with holding onto your principles, but when those principles go as far as to hurting your own people, it's costly.
Virtue signaling will destroy the city.
And businesses. The Google Gemini fiasco is beyond belief. 😅
LMAO talk about stupid government
Criminals supporting criminals
beyond dumb and stupid..ridiculous people trying to force their sickness on others..
As someone on left wing, who tf thinks this is a good idea?

Took me a minute to realize this wasn’t a comedy skit.
I believe SF expected other city governments to follow their example, but they have only shown how much more difficult it is to get anything done and at a much higher cost. It has proven to be an example of how NOT to govern.
In other words, San Francisco drastically over estimated its own importance

@@chriswhite3692 We'll keep the productive ones and them the illegal gangbangers to replace them with.

How arrogant. Those 30 states can survive just fine without SF but obviously SF can’t survive being isolationist.
Not a singlev city or state can.
@@RebelTvShka This all a tangent but I feel like if the country broke apart into individual states, CA, TX and FL would be able to do pretty well. Deep water ports, lots of agriculture, and even tech/lots of companies HQd in each. States like Nebraska, MS would be devastated. Not going hungry, but even poorer. I'm no expert, but interesting thought experiment.
@@mikew3194ur kidding right..California has nothing to offer except entertainment and even that has been leaving the state..Cali produces 12% of US agriculture which 99% is fruits but more states outside of Cali have started to produce those same fruits..the fruits and almonds they grow can actually be grown in other states....California has the largest debt of any state at $520 billion...California has become a craphole and no1 would miss it if it fell in the ocean
Nonsense! North Korea has been isolationist for decades and they are doing JUST FINE. Their leaders are wealthy and well fed, and deaths from starvation among the poors is at an all-time low! San Francisco was obviously inspired by their tremendous example...

Although that would be funny, it does go against free market capitalism
That sounds cute then you realize that would make them as mental as SF.
@@dominichess5273Not really. Part of a free market is the freedom to choose who you do business with.
I say the other sane states should just stop doing business with San Francisco and just watch it decay to nothingness.

@@Couch_Coach_Karen Or any other state...
@@KB-ke3fiYou're part of the problem
@@Couch_Coach_KarenYes you do. Stop making excuses. You chose and you chose poorly.
@@Couch_Coach_Karen It's not the elections that are the problem. Any system which relies on majority rule begins failing once one side/party grows substantially larger than 50% representation. And right now the Democrats in California are around 65%. The problem is that in a majority rule system, the power you have to decide things jumps to 100% the moment you go over 50% representation. And majority rule becomes inherently unfair.
Imagine two of your kids like hamburgers, one likes pizza. If every time you eat out you have them vote and go by majority rule, you'll eat burgers 100% of the time. To be fair, the majority has to lose some of the time (you have to eat pizza 33% of the time). This is why the filibuster, the Senate's equal representation for states, and the Electoral College exist - to make things fairer over time by causing the majority to sometimes lose.
But with a 65% majority, the Ds can never lose. Consequently the legislature becomes an echo chamber, and the level of crazy gets amped up to max.
Who would have guessed a single city banning people From doing business with the majority of states would hurt the city.
it helped the guy who owned the toilet company and made a boat load of money. he probably split some with whichever politician supported the bill.
They didnt ban people from doing business. They banned themselves IE the government and its agencies from doing business. It turned out it only hurt the government in the long run because anything need to be procured by the government and its agencies had to go through a vetting process to ensure where they are getting the item from doesnt violate their rules and it turned out some items just cant be procured from anywhere else except one of those states lol. In other words the government crippled itself thinking it would hurt those businesses but in reality the government was hurting itself because SF forgot they are not the only major city and government isnt the only client lol.

My wife and i are Missourians and we love it. Last November we flew to san francisco to visit one of our son's who recently got stationed there with the Coast Guard. My wife has never been in a 3rd world country, city or town but i have with the U.S Army 38 years ago. We didn't take the tour that they want to take you on but instead took a cab around what used to be the tourist districts. This is horrible folks. People are allowed to be animals. People are allowed to do whatever they want to do. I've never seen anything like it even in the 3rd world countrys ive been in. This is not a systemic racism problem like the media wants you to believe. This is not a Police problem because there is hardly any of them left as far as we could tell. This is an administration problem from the san francisco city government, the california governor, all the way up to the farce of an administration run by biden.

Oh no, San Francisco doesn't like the values of my state. We better change to suit that " amazing" city!!! Said no one ever. Go kick rocks San Francisco government.
When that gentleman used the descriptor, “basket case”, it couldn’t have been more apt. The only thing San Francisco has accomplished in this and many other of her recent policy decisions, is to make her appear to the rest of the Republic, as being one massive and utterly chaotic insane asylum; one which is being run by the patients. Whether you think her elected officials are being noble and principled or not, the fact remains that IT’S NOT THEIR JOB! The job for which they are elected, is to represent and work for the interests, betterment, and uplifting of THEIR community, not lash out at the rest of the Union for what they perceive as injustices or threats. San Francisco has such a ghastly multitude of problems, with citizens living and dying in the most appalling conditions, that it’s simultaneously absolutely outrageous and laughable on its face, that she should even be spending one minute a day, concerning herself with the policy decisions of other States; in which the people of said States, through the democratic process, have elected their representatives to act upon. Funny how “protecting democracy” only seems to be a concern when it works in the Left’s favor.
San Francisco officials need to reevaluate their priorities, refocus their attention, redouble their local efforts, mind their own f*****g business, and stop making spectacles of themselves. Little to no one outside the hell-scape that is the San Franciscan “progressive” bubble, really gives a damn about her feelings and opinions on their local matters and regional concerns. On the contrary, external views on the city of San Francisco range from (1) her being merely a case of bureaucratic dysfunction and government run amok, to (2) her being sort of an ongoing deranged and perverse 'woke', Leftist kabuki theater, to (3) her being just a complete laughing stock; or my case, view her as a combination of all three.
I’m a gay man, and the Bay Area is close to the last place in the nation, that I would ever want to find myself in residency. I think the one-party-state, dumpster fire, and political clusterf**k that is the city of Chicago, would be the only contender in the running for that coveted 'No. 1' “last place” holding. I grew up and was raised in the Greater Los Angeles Metropolitan Area in the 80’s and 90’s, and although being quite partial to the Southland, I always viewed San Francisco as the cleaner, safer, beautifully picturesque, and overall idealized version of the California city that Los Angeles and San Diego only wished they could be, But now? Now I would rather maneuver and manage the perils and challenges of life in South Central. Poor old San Francisco, how thy laurels hath tarnished. Although I miss the dryer weather, and a great, GREAT MANY dining options; both dine-in and takeout/fast-food, I now live roughly an hour away from Atlanta, in semi-rural north Georgia, where quality of life is very much improved from my circumstances in California, and I’m staying put, thank you very much.

@@waitwhat1320 Cali buys water from Washington, Oregon, and Nevada. The real reason Cali has a water shortage isn't the number of people either. It is because they made sweetheart deals with farming companies that snatched up all the family farms by lowering prices artificially.

Then they grow things like pomegranates which are incredibly water intensive. The amount of water needed to grow a single pomegranate could be used to water a whole FIELD of wheat. This is why natural pomegranate fields are only in very specific places. These companies are growing them on huge corporate plantations to sell to China (who literally cannot grow them) and the companies paid extra to the government to get specific water rights. They did this so they could choke out the farmers down stream and expand. However, the plantations are so big and filled with water hungry crops that it has caused several rivers and streams to dry up and force the state to pipe in water from other states. The politicians still get kickbacks so they don't do anything to those plantation companies.
Pomegranates are just one of the water intensive crops being grown there. In places they should never have been grown in the first place.
California has been growing pomegranate for centuries. Since the mission days. Last ive checked 9000 acres is a drop in the barrel. Smh.
BREAKING NEWS: government shows why you shouldnt give government too much power.
I wouldn't move there for anything in the world. What stupidity.
im always amazed at how generous politicians can be........with other peoples money.
If you’re doing business with anyone in SF, make sure you charge them an idiot tax. 📈!
Not that my company would do business with them (we don't have anything to offer them), but I guarantee that they would be paying full MSRP.
Business does this already, it's called contract review and compliance costs. If a customer sends in a request to purchase with a list of demands about how you do business, you review it, make a new SKU for an "Idiots Who Think They Know Better Compliant whatever", and you mark it up by 10-30% without a second thought, assuming your product is already be compliant. If not, it's 20% on top of whatever it actually requires to be complaint with their novel about what they think are human rights or whatever they think they are doing.
And collect $$$ before you supply
"Likeminded government inclusiveness fee" because we like, agree with you so totally on everything. It's a fee to allow you to contribute to small businesses that agree with you.
And as always the real losers are the "normie taxpayers "
Can you imagine having elected officials that could be outsmarted by a 10th grade economics class?
I think you're being generous assuming the whole class would need to get involved in that. One student could undo this dumb ploy and they'd probably have it done before the homeroom bell rings.
I can imagine that and it doesn't surprise me at all.
@@thaddeusmarcuscheeleyjr.786 The problem is one student probably would get it. Getting the whole class on board with it though. There's the rub. If one popular kid thinks it would be a good way to arm wrestle everyone else to behave with those values, the class will go along. Smart kid's protestations notwithstanding.
Most Western leaders are like this.
Elected officials mental capacity, is an insult to 10th graders mental capacity everywhere.
You can tell by the way the reporter is expressing her voice through the words that she got to also express emotionally how she thinks this is an incredible amount of BS
If I were the department of commerce in any of those 30 "banned" states, I'd use the phrase "Proudly banned from doing business in San Francisco!" as an advertising promotional campaign slogan!
As usual, the residents of SF suffer for someone’s “I want to feel good about my personal values” policy. Stupid.
They got what they voted for.
NNO, they voted it in, at least the ones still there. People need to take responsibility for the choices made. Stop playing victims and deal with the problem.
Haha. Yah I hate abortion and local domestic state reliance.
@@ariochiv right, "voted"...
They are not suffering...they voted for it and apparently want it that way.
San Francisco would benefit enormously by having its high school students read the book 'Basic Economics' by Thomas Sowell, so that the next generation won't repeat so many of this generation's mistakes.
You are being generous thinking that students in a state with the worst literacy rate in the entire country could understand what they are reading.
Thomas Sowell is great! More people should read and know him.
They'd have to learn to read and do basic math first
Thomas Sowell's literature is probably banned in California schools.
When you intentionally dumb down your masses so they won't question your math and cherry picked data.... they don't need to worry about reading any of sowells work. Just throw some more "equity" banter on the fire and keep it going.
The ultimate irony is that they needed to revert their exclusionary rules to buy more toilets for homeless people.
Put the city out of business and the crazy revolutionary group celebrating Barabbas.
Never again ask why we need limited government
Why do we need limited government?
Those states should now ban their companies from doing business with SF for 20 years at least!
Good idea but i don't think state have(or should have) the authority to do that.
@@hgarcia318 That's the point... SF City was forcing people to not do business in those states..... If a city can ban someone from doing business with a state that doesn't have your same values, that state should be able to do the same in return! Wouldn't be right to let cities do this, while saying a state can't? The city should not have that power period...
No level of Government has that kind of authority to dictate who can do business anywhere in America. As our company is trying to grow and expand we have been getting calls from companies that operate out of states that are not helping but hindering business's. They are setting interest at their state level, not for where we are, and then we get letters claiming that we have to fulfill their state requirements to get anything. California, New Jersy and NY are 3 of them. Other states want our company to go there as they have needs that are not being taxed out of fines unending let alone incessant changes as to what equipment can be used.
After a good 5 minutes of thought, government leadership always comes up with great ideas considering 2% of the real issues.
Wow. An entire holier-than-thou city government.
Holier-than-thou while cultivating a city covered in human feces.
You just described all city governments.
Truly the Karen of cities
@@Fargoleafy😂
@@Fargoleafy Karensisco? San Karensco?
Government is not the solution, it's the problem.
“I’m from the government and I’m here to help” , are the nine scariest words in the English language
Ronald Reagans famous words
Too bad your kids are being taught otherwise in the public schools.....private schools too toa certain extent.
It's all over in another 2 to 3 generations as they mold their "new normal" children into servants of the state. Once Gen X and Z go extinct, it'll be a very, VERY different world than today.
You might hate America, but I GUARANTEE you're going to miss it.
The government in SF and its citizens are in lock step.
They believe they are the virtuous, the just, the wise. You can blame the policy makers, but the voters put (and keep) them there.
I don't even know how businesses survive in SF.
It's ridiculous to ban whole states for the political beliefs of some of the residents. Many of the businesses don't care about politics.
Seems like it should be unconstitutional too, trying to regulate interstate commerce.
More than ridiculous, this is discrimination based on belief, which should be prosecutable
F San Francisco
You know a business are located in a state a lot of times because that’s where the founder is from. Nothing to do with politics a lot of the time. just sad for the businesses losing out
"Many of the businesses don't care about politics." And not caring about politics is precisely the problem, from the City of San Francisco's point of view.
