Why should we prefer that we support people who work at restaurants vs people who work at tech company cafeterias?
That’s what this legislation is effectively doing.
The biggest issue here is the cost it takes to run a business like a restaurant in this city. It’s too damn high. Even right near Salesforce in Soma there is not really that great of a selection of food.. I wouldn’t blame tech for that. I would blame the city and it’s awful regressive anti-housing legislation that has driven up the costs of everything to near unsustainable levels.
Which is exactly the kind of bullshit that Aaron Peskin supports. Hes literally causing a problem, then trying to blame someone else for dealing with the fallout of that problem. Truly a terrible politician for most of the residents of this city.

- thatswrong0 8y agoThen the city should make it cheaper to own and operate restaurants and make the city less shitty to walk around in by cleaning up its streets of shit and syringes. A lot of these areas that have tech cafeterias are just plain awful to walk around in. You can’t create a vibrant restaurant scene in these areas just by attempting to force people to eat lunch out at overpriced restaurants that aren’t even open on weekends
