Well, it happened again. Governor Jerry Brown hammered another nail into California's coffin. This morning he signed his cap-and-trade extension, which means all of us are going to get screwed even more at the gas pump.

Brown stood next to the water in San Francisco with dopes Kevin de León and Arnold Schwarzenegger as they spewed gas about how they're doing a great thing:

"You're here witnessing one of the key milestones in turning around this carbonized world into a decarbonized sustainable future."

“decarbonized”

He can start with his own body, and see what’s left of it.

Cap and trade is potentially the biggest scam in the history of the world. They will keep coming after it in one form or other until they get it. There is too much power and too much money there to let it go.

the scam has begun- this will sweep the nation- higher taxes on everything in the name of ‘saving the planet’- and after 50 years of either NO change in climate temps, or dropping temps- they will claim victory and keep taxing the crap out of us in the name of ‘saving the planet’-

IF however temps continue to rise- they will claim “But it would have been so much worse if we hadn’;t acted’ and they will continue taxing the crap out of us in the name of ‘saving the planet’

They can’t ever be wrong once this
SCAM gets rolling- no matter what the climate does- they will claim their actions are helping- We will Never Be Free from this scam and it will cripple us financially- Hell- it already is

Rich people who will get richer selling intangible “ credits” to allow businesses to do business and ordinary people to simply go along with their lives, at increasing expense

Food, travel, building materials - all will be burdened with the tax of buying “ credits” - the cost passed along to consumerrs

Why not ban petroleum fueled autos like the the Euro’s. Use solar powered vehicles instead.

This can be overturned by petition, but it would need to happen fast. There’s a small window of opportunity.

This BS is a hydra. Don’t forget lvanka organized a cap and trade show with a bunch of rino’s. This could be the biggest money grab foisted on us all in a long time.

I'm working on a wind-powered vehicle. Trying to figure out what I should use for sails.

Didn’t think of that! Spot on! You win the internets today! de Leon is another one. Wonder how much the drug cartels are paying Jerry Brown? de Leon?

He is so dirty. That Porter Ranch methane leak....he didn’t do a thing for 2 months, him who goes around the world complaint about methane. That leak was the biggest in US history.

I think it was LA Daily News had article on who was paid money from Sempra/gas company that owns the site. Guess who was paid the most??? Yep Jerry Brown. Guess who is on the board of directors for them??? Browns sister.

Sempra made 1b in profits the same year as this methane leak and they did nothing for months to fix the leak. Heck they got paid years ago for the part to fix the leak via taxpayers. 800k.

Jerry Brown make me rant. Rant/off!

California is finished. It is totally taxed to death. Regulations has almost stopped any real growth.

That is coming too, that is what the goal is for Jerry Brown. Yesterday read that a country, forgot which one....no more petroleum and diesel vehicles by 2045.

Los Angeles is reducing traffic lanes for cars and giving more room for bikes and buses. No more new freeways, that is old school thinking.

The global elites do not want us in cars.....only our masters will have them. Us....eating dirt and dying young. Best way to control the masses.
