| San Francisco was glorious. | |
| I first went to San Francisco in 1964. | |
| I had done a lot of traveling around, working in different cities. | |
| There was no place as beautiful, benevolent, and whose people were more alive. | |
| I've raised my seven children there. | |
| I love the city, the culture, everything about it, more than the way it's going today. | |
| What's happening today is it's on an accelerated decline. | |
| The problems are manmade. | |
| We've got an abnormal amount of street crime. | |
| It's in your face. | |
| Corporations and businesses can no longer make a living. | |
| Nordstrom, Target, CVS, Walgreens, their profit margin is very little. | |
| And when you start stealing, they're saying, look, we'd rather not operate in an area where we're not going to make any profit. | |
| That's what's happening between crime, the homeless on the streets. | |
| Not that they're the cause of all the crime, but the very fact they're present is deterring people from coming. | |
| Corporations don't want to deal with that, so they're leaving the city. |
