Who are these "Small government people" in San Francisco? Here is a much simpler description of the cycle in SF:

1: Govt funds vendors, NGOs, non-profits

2: Vendors, NGOs, non-profits fund politicians

3: go to step 1

That would be your run-of-the-mill weed-smoking, I-have-dozens-of-lgbt-immigrant-friends yuppie, who immediately goes to 'Get the government hand out of my pocket' when you ask them to actually fund social services.

In short, socially liberal, fiscally conservative 'progressives'. Very open to nice-sounding things, as long as they don't cost anything.

Lots of them post here, and all of them feel completely justified in their views.
