  3. Neat! «Louis» likes to see these cruise ships visit San Francisco. However, fewer and fewer of them call on San Francisco because of the nutty left-wing politics there. The city council slaps many silly fees on the cruise ships in the name of “environmental concern”. The cruise lines retaliate by eliminating San Francisco as a destination. The city “cuts off its nose to spite its face”: a visiting cruise ship usually pumps $1,000,000 a day into the local economy.
