California’s killjoy bureaucracy is crushing the state’s rebel spirit and freedom

California should be the most fun place in America.

Look at what we have.

Beaches, lakes, mountains, parks, incredible weather, great food and music, and people from every part of the world.

It should be almost impossible to make California boring.

But the politicians and bureaucrats who run our state are doing their best! CALIFORNIA PIZZA KITCHEN FOUNDER SAYS CALIFORNIA HAS BECOME TOO DIFFICULT FOR ENTREPRENEURS California was not built by killjoys.

It became the world’s great magnet for artists, inventors, rebels and misfits because this was the place you came to create, experiment and live freely.

Try doing something fun today.

Want to put on a band at a small venue? You can end up dealing with separate rules for entertainment, dancing, sound, alcohol and zoning.

Want to organize a block party? Get ready to deal with police, fire, health, public works and alcohol officials.

Want to take your dog to the beach, gather your family around a firepit or turn a vacant storefront into a neighborhood meeting place? The answer from the killjoy bureaucrats: No, No, No.

Or…maybe, but only once you’ve spent months — and thousands of dollars — proving that your harmless idea should be allowed.

How did we get here? It wasn’t one law or one decision.

The rules just piled up.

Every time somebody identified a potential problem, the answer was another law, another regulation, another permit, form or ban.
