California: A Basket Case Economically and Morally

California: A Basket Case Economically and Morally
In pursuit of the truth – www.cinopsbegone.com – Thursday, June 30, 2011

Political correctness is a cover for secularism devastating our state. A law signed by Jerry Brown last week mandates new renewable energy requirement for electric utilities in the state.

The new law requires that 33 percent of electricity generated be done with “renewable” sources, essentially wind mills and solar panels by the end of the year 2020. Now if 37 million reduce their “carbon footprint” by a third (a very tall order), that will reduce humanity’s carbon dioxide by one-sixth of one percent, I hate to tell my fellow Californians, but there is no way on earth that will make an iota’s worth of difference. [This is the belief by Ron Ross in his article in the American Spectator, Self-destruction: http://spectator.org/archives/2011/04/21/california-descends-deeper-int/print ]

“At the signing ceremony Governor Brown said, “It’s about California leading the country. It’s America leading the world. There are people who think we can drill our way to happiness and prosperity. Instead of taking oil from thousands of miles away, we’re taking the sun and converting it.” Brown went on to say quite proudly, ‘I didn’t get my name Governor Moonbeam for nothing.’”

“A recent Public Utilities Commission study found that previously imposed renewable energy regulations have added $6 billion to what utilities have had to spend generating electricity since 2002… Such taxes are even worse than increasing taxes. Taxes at least have the potential to create value when spent on… example, teachers’ salaries. Taxes distribute wealth, mandates destroy wealth.

“In a spot-on “Wall Street Journal” column last year entitled ”California: The Lindsay Lohan of States,” Allysia Finley ( a former resident of California) pointed out that our government here is being “run by a brothel of environmentalists, lawyers, public-sector unions and legislative bums.”

We have a new secular religion. Do you remember the disastrous 6 billion embryonic stem-cell research bond and now the new and harmful definition of gender in the State’s education code?

For more secular religion, let’s check out “California’s Family Council’s” Legislative Bill Update: The following bills regarded expanded “rights” for homosexuals, bisexuals, and transgender persons”

Assembly Bill 433 (B Lowenthal, D, Long Beach) Transgender Birth Certificates ===
Assembly Bill 620 – (Block, D- San Diego) would greatly expand the special rights of homosexual students and faculty at public colleges etc.

This week for Assembly floor debate: Senate Bill 48 – Promotion of Homosexual Lifestyle in Public Education: Senator Mark Leno’s bill seeks to interject controversial politics into California’s classrooms, textbooks and instructional material at a time we already have a battered and dysfunctional California school system.

As a retired public school teacher, I called the above today. It’s in the Assembly for a vote.
