California and her new auto emission standards!


Every time I think that the black sheep in the family has begun to shape up, they come out with nonsense like the all new emission mandate that is absolutely guaranteed to fail. They have decreed that they will get 1.4 million electric vehicles on the roads by 2025 at a time when Chevy can’t give away her battery powered cars! They somehow think that the air quality will improve when their neighbor ‘upwind’, aka as China, is cranking up coal fired power plants like there’s no tomorrow. And, implicit in their structuring of this air standard will be the hope of future Federal funds in the form of bailouts when it turns out that (surprise) the Nation is flat broke. Now, while I applaud the idealism of this state, it is the realities of existence that are gnawing at their heels like a hungry pack of wolves.With citizens now leaving the state in record numbers, it's much more likely that should the air quality improve, it'll be because no one is living there any longer!
