There’s probably no better example of what I call “the fourth branch” of government....the administrative branch that few ever talk about. You know, the bldg dept when you want to add on to your home, the school district that sneaks special assessments into your prop tax bill. The CA Air Resources Board will be the death of all CA industry. You can take that one to the bank.

Just Thursday, the state Air Resources Board moved to regulate fluorinated gases commonly used by the Silicon Valley-centered semiconductor industry

These idiots have been on board since this insanity started. Their chickens are now coming home to roost. Serves them right.

Such a policy would reward low-polluting companies with emissions credits that they can then sell on an open market to industries that cannot readily curb discharges.

Yeah...company’s like kite and bicycle makers?

Is it possible that California could declare bankruptcy? Or fall apart? Or dissolve? Perhaps San Diego County could become it’s own state?

“125 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually starting in 2020”

Sounds like a lot doesn’t it? What they don’t tell you is how many tons of CO2 are already in the air and what a miniscule fraction 125 million tons is!!

There are 3 million billion (3x10^15) tons of CO2 in the atmosphere, so 125 million tons corresponds to 0.041666667 millionth of what’s already there. To put it in perspective, it’s the same as the impact on your wealth if you had 100 million dollars in the bank and getting an extra 4 cents a year!!!

They also don’t talk about the impact that this reduction on CO2 would have on the earth’s temperature. Even using their models, it’s so small as to be undetectable even using our most accurate measuring devices.

A couple of places where the impact will definitely be measurable will be in your wallet and your loss of freedom.

WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

Note that the so-called experts quoted about the economic impact of these programs are not economists.

They must also prohibit farming, all new construction and pregnancies. Each of which produces pollution.

Not to mention all economic activity. Nothing less than the complete depopulation of California can solve the problem.

The agenda also includes the nation's first program to reduce the carbon content in transportation fuels, launching a business-friendly trading market for emission credits

There is nothing friendly about Cap-and-Trade.

The stupid thing is that many industries will just relocate to another state rather than try to comply with these impossible standards, thereby moving the problem elsewhere. But if it’s a global problem, the net result is the same except California loses revenue from the former employers. Am I missing something?

“Rather than a drag on the economy, some see the regulations as an ignition switch for job-creating technologies.”

lol dumb socialists haven't a clue. Anyone smart enough to do so has or is planning to move out of California. California's economy is going to go straight down the toilet and is unlikely to recover anytime soon and these morons are the reason why.
