Best laugh of the day ping.
In VA, we love the green power we sell to CA. It doesn't polute VA, and they pay a premium for it, so our electricity rates are cheap, in comparison.
Of course, the GET the same old dirty power from NV, but they pay our higher rates, just for bragging rights.
LOL.

This is such a pipe dream, but wouldn't it be nice if the power plants/electric plants/waste management companies packed up shop and left the state?, I mean, what's to stop them?
The reason that these idiot politicians can do this is that they do not expect any consequences. Push has come to shove, and someone needs to follow an action with an equal and total reaction.
Let's see how the state likes being without power. They can all sit there in their houses, and stare at the walls!
I know it would never happen, but I would love to see it.

This is what happens when Republicans compromise. Schwarzenegger supports global warming, but the Dims are crying "not enough!" and want more onerous regulations.

Sure is nice to see how well California works now that it has a second-term Republican Governor.
What do they do for a third term, draw and quarter them?

California wont be happy until every independent business man in the state has been forced out of business and out of the state.

"Another would expand the renewable energy requirement for utilities. Last year, lawmakers passed separate legislation requiring that 20 percent of power come from clean sources by 2010; the Senate proposal boosts the goal to 33 percent by 2021."
It's absolutely vital that nuclear is included as a clean energy source, since it is emissions-free and safe.
If this is not done, it become a compelte boat anchor to the economy.

As was said at a recent energy conference.
Gentlemen, we have three choices.
1) Drill for more oil and gas.
2) Re-develop nuclear capability.
3) We all go back to living like cavemen.
I will choose any combination of 1) and 2). Caveman is not my thingy.

Truckers need to converge on Sacramento,the docks and the bay bridges, park their trucks and walk away. The Dems fear nothing at this time and the Gov is brain dead...

If the dims have their way, we will all be wiping our butts with leaves again.
Only this time, we will be required to eat those leaves to save the endangered species..... prime rib.

Sorry, dude. Both (1) and (2) are entirely impolitic. That only leaves (3). Embrace the Stone Age with high taxes and without cooking fires.
