All of us serve the same masters, all of us nothin' but slaves / Never forget in the story of Jesus, the hero was killed by the state
In the Bible, Jesus was ordered to be crucified by Pontius Pilate, a governor of the Roman Empire. In other words, Jesus’ death was enforced by government authority—the state.

Scott: progressive tax is important, points to attempts to restore estate taxes in CA. Critical reauthorization of school-funding income tax will be on the ballot. I want to see exactly what measure lands on the ballot before formally expressing my support - some ongoing debate between labor unions

Chan: Billionaires might soon be trillionaires. They threaten to leave California to go to Florida, that’s why we need the wealth tax to be federal.

California may soon be voting on a tax on billionaires; billionaires are displeased, as is Gavin Newsom. What say you?

More of the same from Scott, asks how we can get the good (accelerated drug development, etc) without the bad (revenge porn, chatbots telling kids to commit suicide). Newsom vetoed my AI safety law, we eventually managed to pass disclosure of AI safety procedures

Chan: technology big in SF, has been for a long time. We need regulation, look at what happened with Waymo during the blackout. “I wish I could control my 12 year old’s use of technology but I can’t.” Talks about regulating AI telehealth, rights for artists to control their work, all need fed regs

Regulations not effective enough - they fine $1M per instance, the companies spend $1M every 20 mins. We need to control AI, not their current owners. Points to German auto industry, where gov’t, labor, and industry all on corporate boards.

Chan: rent too high, cost of living too high. Need to fix immigration policy, affirm birthright citizenship and invest in pathways to citizenship. Federal gov’t needs to fund gender affirming care, and Medicare for All. Need to invest in education, childcare, K-12, free community college for all
