CA has passed Cap and Trade totally on it's own. I guess they aren't happy with slowly sinking into the ocean, they want to jump in both feet first.

I'm not sure about posting this - it is from Fox, but I see the byline is AP - mods, if it is not allowed, just please pull it.

When getting sucked into a black hole just isn’t good enough. They choose to fly into one with a rocket.

Can't wait till next summer, when the temps exceed 100 in LA and points south..

What do you expect from Moon-Beam?

Well, I guess they can go into more “green” technology - like growing pot commercially.

Pathetic.

>>an experiment by the world’s eighth-largest economy that is designed to provide financial incentives for polluters to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

If they cap and trade REAL good, they might be the eightieth largest economy in a few years.

State officials said they hoped other states and Washington, D.C., would follow suit...

On this point, the "state officials" are actually telling the truth.

I would bet a million carbon credits (if I had any) that during the hearings for the rule, it was stated several times that this would be a "model" for the rest of the nation and the world.

That, my friends, is life in my imperious little state of California, where they think they know better than the rest of the globe, and they somehow believe that they rule it.

We have several family size tents available as well as a large enclosing tarp to double insulate them ~ to set up in the backyard to temporarily house the relatives when they flee California ~ probably the day after this bill goes into effect.

I think it will all be big enough ~ should be 6 rooms in there.

among the suite of tools California can use to reduce the pollution linked to climate change and cut dependence on foreign oil.

If it wasn’t for all the good people in CA, my wish would be for the CA economy to croak before that of the US government, so an example of economic reality would stand before the people, but then we would probably face another example of too big to fail.

Go, California!

Georgia needs the jobs.

I see Californians swirling in the toilet bowl while their politicians are reaching out to grab the flush handle one more time.

[RobertClark]

Can’t we just give California to the ChiComs in exchange for wiping out our debt? Good heavens, we have got to get rid of that place - it’s beyond hope!

I live in Palm Desert area next door to Palm Springs. Typical electric bill in summer is $500 for four months. People here are hurting...mostly the democrats. They’re not going to support higher utilities and don’t have the money. This could cause a massive backlash next November, and it’d be worth it.

But have influential American politicos in the most politically influential states sufficiently devolved to survive in their chosen post-cap-and-trade conditions?
