"I am requesting the CARB delay the vote until updated cost
projections are provided to the public.  Actually, I think this
particular rule making should be presented to the citizens as a
Proposition ballot measure; as any tax, bond issue, etc. would be.

I am a liberal Californian, and voting straight Democrat in this
coming election purely to preserve the U.S. Constitution.  It isn't
always that way.

Our gas prices are already obscene, compared to a lot of other
states.  Further increases in that differential could result in
unintended political and social consequences.  The public hasn't
been made aware of the changes that will further increase our
costs, much like a tax.  I think more time should be given for
science to develop some alternatives, as further modifications are
probably producing smaller improvements at increasingly greater
costs.

The supermajority in the legislature is walking a fine line, along
with many of our state boards and committees.  I believe we are
reaching the limits of traditional liberalism, as governmental
revenue vs. spending or personal income vs. expenses are reaching a
point of financial destabilization."
