Do you have links/posts/etc that you could collate into a resource? Your hypothesis sounds tyrannical and draconian... and all too likely, given the fascist tendencies of the American Left.
The basic understanding came from research done for my book, Natural Process: That Environmental Laws May Serve the Laws of Nature. A lot of the data about CalPERS and Catellus came from a book by disaffected leftist reporter, Richard Trainor: Paradise Lost? The rest was obvious. I have a lot more on such machinations and (more importantly) how they were integrated into our laws from the beginning here.
