San Francisco has become a dangerous wasteland where even walking one block requires an Uber to avoid being “executed.” That’s the shocking warning from Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary, who says the city “is not America anymore.” He blames California’s disastrous policies for turning the state into a business graveyard.
O’Leary points directly at Governor Gavin Newsom’s failed leadership for destroying California’s economy. The $20 minimum wage hike forced countless restaurants and stores to shut down because they couldn’t afford to stay open. But the damage goes far beyond fast food—businesses across every industry are fleeing.
California is being completely hollowed out as taxpayers and companies escape the state’s hostile environment. Job creators are rushing to freedom in states like Texas, Tennessee, and Florida where common sense prevails. O’Leary himself refuses to invest in California startups anymore, calling the state “not a place to do business.”
Major corporations like Chevron, Tesla, and Oracle have already abandoned Newsom’s sinking ship. They’re joining the exodus to Texas after years of being attacked by California’s radical climate lawsuits and anti-business regulations. This proves the crisis isn’t just about small stores—even giants can’t survive there.
Newsom cares more about his presidential fantasies than fixing his own state. Every American sees California’s collapse as a warning of what happens when liberals run things. If Newsom wants power, he should start by rescuing the mess he created.
The root problem is California’s war on success through high taxes and endless regulations. Hardworking people and companies are punished instead of rewarded. That’s why families and entrepreneurs vote with their feet—they’d rather build futures where freedom still exists.
San Francisco shows the tragic result of progressive policies. Once-great streets now resemble third-world danger zones while politicians ignore the crisis. Citizens live in fear as stores vanish and criminals take over. Only new leadership can rescue this fallen city.
California’s nightmare proves conservative policies create prosperity while liberal ones destroy it. States that respect business and safety flourish—those suffocated by government greed and madness become wastelands. Every voter must remember this truth at the ballot box.
