I agree. Arnold's plan has good intentions but it doesn't work cause it relies on command and control mechanisms rather than the free market to protect the environment. After all the decades of experience with government in charge, one would think he learned something. Perhaps its political pandering to the uninformed. I'd as soon see to it to these proposals never see the light of day.

The problem isn't as much as what he said as it is the people that he hired to say it. Those folks becoms staff to the governor. It's one thing to blather on in a newspaper about the stuff you read in which you would like to think you believe, it's another to make executive decisions to DO things that make you feel good. That's where we learn where Arnold really stands unfortunately because he is apt to situational thinking because he doesn't have a set of matured policies in mind. He wants to do great things. Unfortunately, coercion is a schematically simple concept to the uneducated. That's why he's a danger to California and to the conservative Republican Party.

In that respect alone, what he says in the campaign is untrustworthy. I am glad you took the opportunity to consider a different perspective. Thank you.
