Here we go again:

The Bad:

Price of gas rises = more money from your pocket.

Increased taxes extracted from higher priced gaoline = more money from your pockets.

More money for Schwarzenegger and the legislative Democrats to spend to launch new programs = more money from your pocket in future years.

The Good;

A currently appointed member of one of Schwarzenegger's agencies can resign and take a position as head of this new, independent, research and development body, doubling their existing salary, automatically becoming insulated from political threat or performance scrutiny and laughing all the way to the bank ... at your expense, of course.

If California voters are ignorant of the relationship between higher taxes and the price they pay at the gas pump, then if this turkey passes they have no right to complain about $4.00 a gallon gas. Economic idiots.

(The Palestinian terrorist regime is the crisis and Israel's fist is the answer.)

[NormsRevenge]

What a bunch of short-sighted f*-n idiots.. that also includes voters that vote for this or either of the 2 dems running for Gubby.

Sunni McPeak was a twit when she was in
Alameda County Gubamint and she is a bigger now,, albeit loaded as aresult of the political patronage system that has thoroughly corrected this state's gubamint and its various sordid agencies..

Maybe if the oil companies gave it all away for free we'd have really cheap gas........

[SierraWasp]

"Voter disdain for oil companies is high."

Yeah, and here we go again with Direct Democrazy Driven By Pure Emotional Bull Crappola!!! These Demonicrats just NEVER stop their agitprop for gutteral Socialism!!!

[Realism]

more money from your pockets

Not if you don't buy a lot of gas. Calif. leads the country in renewable energy, seem as if they want to keep it that way.

NY should play catch up and compete head to head with these guys.
