San Fran Gap to Fire Another 500 High Paying Jobs

Another example of California losing high paying jobs—and San Fran in a slow motion economic collapse.  The Gap is going to lay off 500 workers, now.  How many more in the coming months?  Wait till after January 1 and you will see a large number of companies downsizing.  This is part of the reason California lost 11% of its income tax revenue in the past quarter.
