John Eger has inspirational ideas. Life was not intended to be lived under the thought police and oppressors. What a wonderful idea he has, to form cross-border economic zones that work together, trade together and develop together in order to form greater progress, better living conditions and growth. San Diego leaders should have the freedom to work directly with the Mexican government to achieve these goals, and improve infrastructure along the border, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump is no inspirational leader. Bluntly, he is a meanie: threat after threat, California is bad, I\u2019ll send the Marines, I\u2019ll withdraw education funds, I\u2019ll withdraw federal funds for health care, and loads and loads of blabber undermining our state.<\/p>\n<p>This is not how America flies \u2014 we fly the friendly skies of freedom! Here\u2019s to a San Diego-Tijuana economic, cultural and educational development zone!
