Yeah, but California ain't building any new power plants.
How the hell can something like this even be enforced? The regulators might as well try to overrule the law of gravity.
We should start putting liens on the personal property of all these “regulators” for damages and make them share in the pain.
Does anyone really believe California will exist in 2025?
In 2025, those running that joint will look back at the clowns that passed this and shout, “Bite me!”.
Yeah, but California ain't building any new power plants.
This is going to fail.
Why?
California’s economy, as a percentage of worldwide auto sales, is going to shrink substantially in the next decade. To the point it will be selling less cars than any two coastal Chinese provinces. On top of that, the cars in California will be the most expensive in the world for base models, but with a working class population with some of the lowest after tax take home income in the world.
The “West” has reached peak car use, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_car
the “East” will be the deciding force behind technology mandates in low end cars of the future.
how the heck can that work???
Say hello to brown outs..
So when Sheriff Joe in Arizona started deporting illegals, the Feds came in screaming that the Sheriff was stepping on Federal toes.
Now CARB is stepping on the Feds toes and not a peep.
“Many other changes included in these sweeping regulations. Please click to read. It’s just wrong that regulators, not the politicians we elect, have the power to turn our lives upside down in such a major way.”
Yup...These unelected officials now control our country. A socialist president can put in place radical leftist activists in every department, and then they can arbitrarily create whatever law they wish. No need for a legislature. They don’t even have a say anymore.
“California air regulators passed sweeping auto emission standards Friday...”
Nice that the legislature doesn’t have to vote on this kind of stuff anymore.
...odd definition of a democracy (or a Republic).
Come to Texas, Freepers.
Auto makers should just abandon the state. It will look like Cuba in a few years.
What we’ve learned from history is that we don’t learn anything from history. The world has already forgotten the millions of Soviet citizens who died during the 1930s when their Communist government interfered with their food supply, and millions died again in the 1950s when China’s Communist government disrupted China’s food supply.
History is once again repeating its self, as leftists are once again interfering with the food supply, and once again people are dying. Obama’s leftist administration is pushing the use of E85 alcohol-gasoline with no regard to what this is doing to the world’s food supply. So far, the people who are dying as a result of this disruption of the food supply by American leftists are not, as yet, American. American leftists (read Democrats) get that “feel good” feeling over reduced carbon emissions as a result of their use of E85 fuel, and just as Soviet and Chinese Communists of the past showed a complete disregard for the deaths of those who died as a result of their interference with the food supply, American leftists now show a complete disregard for the people dying as a result of their use of this E85 alcohol-gasoline.
American leftists don’t seem to care that the amount of grain required to manufacture enough alcohol to fill the fuel tank on one E85 SUV could feed a person for one year, and they don’t seem to care that the removal of this food from the world food market has caused a shortage resulting in the price of food to almost double around the world. Rising food prices causes some inconvenience for these American leftists, but in the poorest countries of the world those who could only afford to eat twice a day can now only afford to eat once a day. This reduced diet in the world’s poorest countries is destroying the health of an already weakened people and is especially deadly among their nursing mothers. Many nursing mothers who could previously produce enough milk to feed their babies now under a reduced diet can’t produce enough milk and their babies die.
Just as the Communists of the past had no feeling for what their misguided food programs did to people, American leftist don’t seem to care that every time they fill their E85 SUV’s gas tank, somewhere in one of the world’s poorest counties a baby dies.
But, then, American leftists (read Democrats) have a long, proud history of choosing to kill babies, now don’t they?
