Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger, who counts AB 32 as a high-water mark of his governorship, echoed Brown...
Therein lies the problem.

AB32 is to California’s economy like throwing a 5 gallon drum of Poland Springs to a drowning man.

“Investments in clean energy produce two to three times as many jobs per dollar as gas, oil or coal,” Brown said in Silicon Valley on Tuesday.”
Total Bullshit.

Look at Spain where green jobs cost more jobs than they created.

These leftist fools just make this stuff up and the leftist media simply parrots it without even a hint of fact checking.

"Investments in clean energy produce two to three times as many jobs per dollar as gas, oil or coal," Brown said in Silicon Valley on Tuesday. By all means, that should be the primary criteria. After all, I buy a car based on the number of people it took to make it. The more the better cuz it creates jobs! Who cares about the price? Jobs, jobs, jobs! YAY!

"Investments in clean energy produce two to three times as many jobs per dollar as gas, oil or coal," Brown said in Silicon Valley on Tuesday.
Notice he says per dollar instead of per unit of energy. This is central to the lie. Since a unit of energy of renewable power costs 3-100+x the costs of traditional forms of energy by the time it is consumed.
"Clean energy jobs and businesses have grown much faster than the economy as a whole in the past 15 years, and have continued to grow even during the economic downturn."
We don't have to look further than Obama and subsidies that states have given for renewables to wonder why.

Every word of this story completely untrue. California has yet to reduce one molecule of the only greenhouse gas that matters at all, H2O vapor.

Suspending AB 32 would be a big step in the right direction. The MSM and the usual lib groups will be against it. It would send a big message if this measure would pass.
