Kill CARB! And Hire Teachers!
This site is dedicated to a grassroots effort with the sole purpose of convincing California law makers to disband The California Air Resources Board. Why are we doing this? Because the California Air Resources Board (CARB) is a rogue agency that is causing harm to the environment and to the working people of this state. . . .
Your state legislators and the governor have fired over 7000 teachers in the state in order to give 857 million dollars of your tax dollars to this outrageously corrupt state agency. Why? Easy. Follow the money. The CARB payroll is loaded with political friends of the legislators. Hundreds of these worthless so-called public servants collect hundred thousand dollar salaries and pension benefits that working families can never expect. CARB is also in bed with organizations that steer many millions to the campaign coffers of the legislators. Why otherwise would the legislature keep CARB alive and growing — and rob the youth of California of the education they deserve? When the state is bankrupt, teachers are losing their jobs, millions are out of work, and the legislature gives CARB billions of dollars to waste on its fraudulent campaigns and regulate the working people as if they are criminals spoiling the environment. Of course, CARB must manufacture a new “health crisis” every year to justify its existence.
CARB is demanding that every off-road diesel engine in the state be replaced with less efficient engines that will actually add to the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. If that is not enough, the 20 million dollar price tag will place a financial burden on an estimated 30 thousand business owners and will put many of them out of business–it is estimated that 150,000 jobs could be lost if these companies pull up stakes and move from California.
