In the largest street protests in over 32 years, Chinese of all demographics have hit the streets in protests against Beijings harsh pandemic position on curtailing the spread of the Covid 19 virus. Lockdowns and isolation have been the Communists' go to position. Citizens cannot leave their homes, cannot go to work, sick or not. The Unemployment rate for young workers has soared above 20%. Beijing refuses to alter course in the face of these mass protests. Not since Tianeman square protests in 1989 have there been such anti-government protests. Dictators never learn. Nor oligarchs or despots. People want to be free. It's universal. despite arrests, jailings, beatings, camera recordings, the protests continue in large cities and small. How will this play out? Nobody knows at this point.
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
