Five California laws that have come back to bite them
California has a propensity for starting trends that sweep through the rest of the nation, whether it was the hippie era in the '60s, high tech in the '90s, or a host of environmental regulations in the 2000s, to name a few.
Politicians have run this fifth-largest economy in the world as a test case for radicalism, enacting some laws that turned out to be a disaster. Here are the top five:
Including the limiting 55 gallons of water per day per household starting in 2022. This is to save water for who knows what. How will this affect the farmers in the Central Valley this next year? Heltau
They also don't want to build the new water storage reservoirs that have already been paid for three times over. They have better uses for that money, and it isn't in building new prisons.
Yes. Number Two Son (small business owner) and his Lovely Bride (Alameda County Public Defender specializing in murder cases) are getting an up-close-and-personal education about all the above.
"save water for who knows what" Why the delta smelt of course. Can't have those tiny 2" long fish going the way of the Dodo. Everyone must suffer so that the delta smelt can survive. Shared suffering is just another mechanism of control.
It's not bad enough that we're already paying exorbitant prices for fresh vegetables. I paid $5.00 for a head of celery recently. Celery, a vegetable that they used to practically give away. They're taking good arable farm land out of production for lack of water, further increasing produce prices AND driving generations of farmers out of business.
They should have added the California Air Resources Board. CARB is the outfir that is making older trucks unable to be used in this shithole. They are about to screw over the sport fishing business next by requiring Tier 4 emission controls on fishing charter boats.
