California's anti-global warming law is, according to the LA Times, "a model for other state and federal efforts [to combat global warming]" is under attack in the Golden State. In what supporters hope will kick-start a national rebellion against anti-global warming laws, an initiative is on the ballot suspending the state's carbon control laws until unemployment drops to 5.5% (it's currently at 12.4%).
Of course, the global warming alarmists are against it:
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who has made climate change one of his signature issues, is reportedly asking major companies to remain on the sidelines. The governor "absolutely opposes" the initiative, said spokesman Aaron McLear, adding that it is "deceptively written to protect big polluters and would keep us from staying No. 1 in the country in creating clean tech jobs."
Yes, you've created so many clean tech jobs your unemployment is 2.7 points higher than the nation's horrible 9.7%.
This could be the start of a national back-lash against climate change regulations. People see them as the job killers that they are.
