I don't know about you, but I have to 'smog' my 33 year old truck every year or two, and if it doesn't pass I can't register it and it becomes illegal to drive it on public roads.

So you think that people who live out in the boonies should be able to drive their gross polluters that get 3mpg because their states have a lower poulation?

To the Obama administration, it's a 'global' issue, and California is leading by example.

Are you opposed to driving a car that gets 50mpg? Now it's GM's job to make a high mileage vehicle that people will want to buy, or they can just leave it up to Japan and Korea.

It sucks having to live by all these strict rules in California.... but we do it just fine, so why can't you?
What does California do just fine? Not much but get in the way of technology and innovation, overtax, overspend, and overregulate. California is an embarassment to the United States.
