You’re not going to change the minds of these environmental extremists and the people of California who are brainwashed by their schools and popular culture into worshiping Gaia. But you can try to return the state’s governance to the constitutional structure mentioned above by Ron Kilmartin. Free market advocates need to target and dismantle regional governments, Joint Powers Agencies, and regulatory boards. What happened to “blowing up the boxes” that Schwarzenegger wanted to do in 2004?

I see this carbon crap as nothing more than a game of monopoly, only being played by very ignorant fools with governmental powers to distroy the private sector machine. 🙂

Oops, 2nd to last line should read “constitutional”, not “unconstitutional”.

CARB, ABAG, MTC, and the rest of the unelected boards and councils in this state are all completely out of control of the citizenry. They have no standing in the Constitutional framework; how did we allow this to happen?

The American governance model has always been Federal-state-county-city or town. In California it has become Federal-state-unelected councils boards -county-city or town. And as the unelected boards have become more powerful, the elected bodies have become less powerful, particularly at the county and city or town level. The elected city councils defer to the councils for orders and regulations, and the people get left out of the equation
The councils, etc., are exactly like the soviets of Communist Russia, the members all appointed members of the elitist Nomenclatura (or as we say here, the Democratic Party). It is time to return CA governance structure to its unconstitutional basis so that these nanny-state job-killers are subject to the citizens’ vote It is time to get rational people in these councils and boards, or better yet, close them down.

Resource shuffling is when the NGO’s need more return from their investment, them and the Green Industry that is tax exempt. Just move on, nothing to see here.
The great thing about Cap & Trade is WCI/CARB control the price, always. It is as phony as global warming is, Cap like captured, that’s you and trade is trading hot air for money that’s them. Money from nothing, pretty cool huh? It only works if you let it.

We have already seen AB32 kill thousands of jobs, now Valero Refining is looking to exit California primarily due to AB32. One has to wonder what will happen if they do not find buyers for their refineries, will they shut them down? If you think $5/gallon was bad, this would mean $7-8/gallon.
