Sunlit Oaks: Area’s newest winery creates a buzz

Here in Silicon Valley, we know it's possible to change the world by starting a business in your garage. Companies like Apple, Google and Hewlett-Packard all famously started in theirs. And now, these companies - and many others like them - are leaders in the charge for the Internet of Things - where the most mundane things will be embedded with sensors and monitored by the Internet. The Internet of Things, under way for years, is quickly becoming a reality and is predicted to have the most profound effect on our world since the Industrial Revolution. Even our grapevines will be micro-chipped to determine perfect sugar content.

$16 billion state deficit, watcha gonna do voters?

Let’s start right off the bat: Gov. Jerry Brown and his Band of Little Renown can take his more taxes plan and stuff it. I’m sick of the state government trying to bleed us dry, stealing tax money from our city government, closing down RDA entities to feed their spending habits and threatening the purse strings of our schools. The farther away the money gets, the less control we the taxpayers have over it.  Cut the state budget. Vote against every state incumbent, vote against every tax. Unfortunately, it’s at the point where I believe that’s what it’s going to take to shake the status quo up. California government is not serving us, the people who pay the taxes. California government, despite a $16 billion deficit, increases spending. Nobody in California has the guts to really wade in, apply common sense, accept the pain that goes with reality and change things. This quote, posted by OldMan64 on our website comment board, spoke volumes and, if the voters don’t do something drastic very soon, this state is going down the tubes. OldMan’s choice hammered it home: “The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public’s money.” ~ Alexis de Tocqueville, ca. 1830. Vote them all out, vote against more taxes. Do it, and we might save our state and the American Republic.
