If the idiot liberals pass the prop 23, it will literally kill this state. Just move to another state and give California back to the Mexicans. What the hell, it’s what they all want anyways.

I think you got it wrong Nitehawk. Proposition 23 is a good proposition and all California Conservatives should support it. Proposition 23 will stop the implementation of AB32 (carbon tax) until the unemployment rate drops below 5.5% for 4 straight quarters. The liberals oppose Proposition 23 and the Conservatives should support 23.

I thought Prop 23 was supposed to stop the affect of a global warming law they passed until unemployment in the state is under 5.5% for three consecutive quarters.

Detailed financial information (5 %)
Executive compensation (3 %)
Ownership structure (5 %)
Ongoing legal proceedings (2 %)
Accounting practices (3 %)
Environmental impact statements (9 %)
All material information (6 %)
Disclosure requirements should mirror what is required for public companies. (7 %)
Nothing. It’s no one’s business. (48 %)
I don’t know. (5 %)
Total Votes: 10956

Libertarian kooks flushing money down the toilet.
Kalifornia kooks may be off basd with their global warming junk science, but at least they're headed in the right direction by trying to wean themselves off their wasteful addiction to fossil fuels.
IMHO, Kalifornia would be best off building nuclear power plants to supply the energy for both electric passenger rail transit systems AND desalination plants to supply fresh water from the sea.
The Kochs are idiots... maintaining Kalifornia's oil addiction isn't going to cause "global warming", but it will piss away dwindling fossil fuel supplies in Kalifornia traffic congestion while jeopardizing people's health with poor air quality.

I loved it when they bought GP. I disliked GP like I dislike liberals.

Pathetic. You just don't get how the energy racketeering scam in this state works. The whole global warming scare was cooked up by the owners of oil and gas companies in the first place. They want you to fund their investments in "alternative energy."

Oil is just a natural compound Willie. Not that you would know economics from a hole in the head. People want it, pay for it, like it, want more of it. Billions of people.
Yeah, the Kochs are idiots. Only they run, own, and profit one of the largest private companies in America. And, compared to you Choo-Choo, you run what? Beg for train stops?
You just don’t like freedom. In this case people doing what they want with their own money. Just as you like your union hack friends, hack contractors, family hiring politicians having us forced on to their 1800’s era train schemes.

The left whines about oil money funding AGW skeptics but those dollars are a drop in the bucket compared to Big Government funding of AGW junk science. Ever wonder why you never stop hearing about studies finding GW responsible for everything from kidney stones to cannibalism? Explains Richard Lindzen (Sloan Professor of Meteorology at MIT): "It's become standard that whatever you're studying, include global warming's effects in your proposal and you'll get your (government) funding."

The fallacy in your post is “wean themselves off fossil fuels”.
There is absolutely no need to wean one’s self from fossil fuels. The fact the phrase exists is a testimony to a leftist agenda put forward by the weaker segment of the race who know better but still follow the crowd off the cliff.

You are wrong.
In densely populated regions, the cumulative emissions degrade living conditions and jeopardize public health.
