  “How expensive?” tracks measurements of California’s totally unaffordable housing market.
  The pain: Rent hikes outpaced pay raises in 44 of 50 big US metropolitan areas during the past four years – and in four of six metros from California in this study.
  The source: My trusty spreadsheet reviewed Zillow’s analysis of the growth in rents vs. increases in average hourly earnings between 2019 and 2023 across the nation.

  By JENNIFER PELTZ, MICHAEL R. SISAK and JAKE OFFENHARTZ
  NEW YORK — Donald Trump squirmed and scowled, shook his head and muttered as Stormy Daniels described the unexpected sex she says they had nearly two decades ago, saying she remembered “trying to think of anything other than what was happening.”
  It was a story Daniels has told before. This time, Trump had no choice but to sit and listen.

  Disneyland is about to take the first step on a 40-year journey that will forever change the face of the Anaheim theme park resort now that the city has approved an expansion plan that promises new themed lands, rides, hotels, shops and restaurants.
  What will Disneyland build first? An Avatar themed land? A Marvel E-ticket ride? The Arendelle Castle from the World of Frozen?
  The answer is likely far less fantastical and much more practical.

• Bidenomics has been a disaster

  08-05-2024 17:00 via ocregister.com
  
  Four years ago, then-candidate Joe Biden vowed he would be the most progressive president in American history. Four years later, with inflation having eroded the value of the American people’s savings and purchasing power, we should have taken Biden’s words as a threat, not a promise.
  The fact is that leftists have little to no grasp on basic economics. If they did, they wouldn’t be leftists. Armed with the power of government, leftists like President Biden will spend without l

• Friedrich Hayek tried to warn us about the ‘social justice’ left

  08-05-2024 16:50 via ocregister.com
  
  Today marks the birthday of the great economist Friedrich Hayek. Born on this date in 1899 in Vienna, Hayek devoted his life to economic education.  Perhaps his best known work is “The Road to Serfdom,” published in 1944.
  As well-summarized by Gerald O’Driscoll for the Cato Institute, Hayek’s core thesis “is that one intervention inevitably leads to another. The unintended consequences of each market intervention are economic distortions, which generate further

• My YouTuber grandmother recommends this simple, inexpensive gardening tip

  08-05-2024 16:30 via ocregister.com
  
  For those who want to grow plants but lack a yard or landscape to dig into, there are options.
  For some, that might be a top-of-the-line planter or a made-to-order plant bed, but that doesn’t work for everyone. What if you, to be blunt, are looking for a cheaper option?
  Try this: Head to your local store and grab a plastic tote – essentially a durable plastic container, often with handles. Then get seeds or a starter plant, and soil and you are ready to grow. Best of all, this option

  In case you’ve been in a medically induced coma, I’d like to inform you that today is Mother’s Day, at least if you’re reading me in the print paper. (If you’re reading this online, all bets are off.)
  Mother’s Day has been an offficial holiday since 1914, when it was created to sell large, pricey greeting cards and keep florists in business. Just kidding. But true, right?

  The U.S. Census Bureau wants to ask American residents about their sexual orientation and gender identity, a move seen by activists as a long-overdue form of formal recognition that happens to be coming during a time of mixed acceptance and hostility.
  “Any kind of inclusivity is welcome. Visibility is always good,” said Manny Muro, vice president of OC Pride, a group that works to build recognition and fight stigma for the LGBTQ+ community in Orange County.

  He might be tempted to take the Dodger Stadium mound again before this series is over. It could be his best option.
