And they\u2019re still undecided about exactly who will be forced to cut their emissions, and how much emissions cutting thatthey\u2019ll really have to do.<\/p>\n<p>The state\u2019s liberal lawmakers aren\u2019t the only ones confounded &#8211;so are businesses. Throughout California, they\u2019re trying to determine exactly how they\u2019ll cut emissions from automobiles, factories, utilities, manufacturing plants, food processors, [and] other business operatorswithout plunging the state\u2019s economy into total ruin.<\/p>\n<p>Already warnings are coming from various industries that implementing these widely-touted laws will require cuts in production &#8211;which, if you can\u2019t figure that out, means the loss of jobs.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also this mitigating factor that doesn\u2019t get enough attention;something I\u2019ve been talking about for ages. Businesses in California&#8211; like the rest ofAmerica&#8211; are already &#8220;efficient&#8221; when it comes to controlling pollution; we\u2019re making great strides cleaning up our messes. Thus these new standards are like trying to squeeze blood out of a turnip!<\/p>\n<p>So,what now for California? Easy, folks:pain. Followed by&#8230;more pain.The chief byproduct of out-of-control liberal wacko-ism. (I just wish God would show up and tell these global warming people that they\u2019re full of it!)<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rush\u2019s Morning Update: Now What?December 4, 2007Watch It!
