Unelected, unaccountable commissions dictating policy and writing regulations on the regional and local levels is called a soviet. The Russians had a name for it - soviet socialism.

Congratulations. California has created the first communist soviet socialist government on American soil. The repression and theft will begin soon.

That sounds like the California Coastal Commission Communism

You know, its even worse than that. Everyone thinks Arnold's California Performance Review is about money. It isn't. Its about destroying county governments and replacing them with unelected regional bureaucracies.

Once the regional councils are in place, then its time for the internationalists to take control, completely bypassing our national government and US Constitution.

Here is what one internationalist has said:

[Regional governments enable] global and international institutions to by-pass national capitals and penetrate directly into regions and localities, have begun the process of restructuring human societies into the "new localisms" of regions.
