Two days I wrote about how the construction of wind farms in California has slowed--because of opposition to them by environmentalists, wind isn't cheap anymore.
But the Los Angeles Times just doesn't get it:
California's unemployment rate is well above the national rate of 9.7%. And it's the fourth-highest in the nation; only Michigan, Nevada and Rhode Island, at 15.2%, 13.2% and 12.8%, respectively, are faring worse. Unemployment will not decline until industries such as renewable energy, (emphasis mine) healthcare and construction experience significant growth, economists say. Most don't expect that any time soon.

heh, yep
The solution is what it's always been, small business. An argument could be an end to politicians but that's a little harsh probably...
I'm enjoying all the anecdotal evidence that liberalism is a colossal failure.
