They actually have seminars in revenue enhancement. You betcha your a target!

Are the credits taxable or the cap fees tax deductible? Its not play money????

ROI looks to take a beating…marginal business operations merge with strong players or go bye bye!

“Hey, Beelz, there’s tons of crap they get by us. I’ve found one really has to monitor various web sites (such as this wonderful one), to find out about it. You’ll NEVER read or hear of it from the “mainstream”.

Yeah, this website is certainly better than most with good in-depth reporting on the scams. But I’m really disappointed that even the CalWatchdog fails to report on all the social and financial damage California sustains as a result of illegal immigration. It’s really difficult to find good reporters who sink their teeth into that topic.

Wayne, no, no, no! “either reduce pollution or buy pollution credits”. CO2 is NOT a pollutant! In, fact, essential to life. There is NO evidence whatsoever that more of it is harmful. The whole thing is a scam by the anti-human crowd. Please just say CO2 instead of pollution.

“The Gas Co. also has a new “fee” to help “poor people” enjoy lower gas rates”

I didn’t realize that but you’re correct. It’s called the “CARE Public Purpose Surcharge”. It was over 4% of my bill. How do they always sneak this crap by us??? And I stay pretty current with the news. Even I didn’t know about it. What else are they sneaking by us??? Where’s the mainstream media???

But I would rather help the poor keep their homes heated in the winter than backstop the investment losses for the pension fund of the So Cal Edison turdballs.

Imagine calling up your 401-K investment manager and demanding all your investment losses from the 2008 economic meltdown get reimbursed!!! 😀

All you would hear on the other end of the line is howling laughter!!!

The Gas Co. also has a new “fee” to help “poor people” enjoy lower gas rates. Who keeps track of these funds run by these tax farmers…er, utilities? I would guess many dollars go into their general fund as well.

I’ve always referred to it as Cap-n-Tax because that is exactly what it is.

It has nothing to do with the environment or being “green” but has always been about enriching corrupt politicians and their cronies and an excuse for politicians to get ever more control over our lives.

Awhile back So Cal Edison asked the PUC to approve a rate increase on our electric bills to specifically cover the losses that their pension fund incurred during the economic meltdown. So they bet the farm on risky investments to keep those big ass pensions rolling in – lost – so now instead of cutting back on their pensions to compensate for their bad bets – they want the ratepayors to make their bad bets good. That’s like handing a gambling addict $10,000 – sending him to Vegas – and indemnifying him against all losses.

Maybe one of you guys can check with So Cal Edison and find out whether that specific rate increase was ever implemented. I know that they held public hearings on it.

Arnold told us that AB 32 would end global warming and provide millions of new jobs for California. It turns out to be just another scam to fund the bloated pensions of pampered government shirkers.
