California’s decline under a Democratic monopoly on power is not without its opposition. One of the most important opponents happens to be the best fast-food chain in the country.

In-N-Out Burger is spending at least $500,000 in support of Proposition 36, the fruit of the labors of those in the state trying to repeal the pro-criminal Proposition 47 passed in 2014. Proposition 36 would increase penalties for shoplifting and drug crimes, including those involving fentanyl. Retail chains in California joined with prosecutors to get Proposition 36 on the ballot against the frenzied pro-criminal opposition of state Democrats, even as cities such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Oakland, California, became less safe.
