And the Galactic Overlords want it this way
In the 1970s an official of the California Air Resources Board (CARB) speaking of cars stated that the CARB did not want back yard repair as that SMOG controls were complex and sensitive to misadjustment. The CARB later extended its mandate to all internal combustion engines. This would provide sanction to the idea of factory techs only on maintenance. The EPA (Feds) sanction the manufacturers for exceeding pollution limits and the local air board goes after the user. Once the camel nose is in the door it is not much longer for the remainder entering. Bernie speaks green to one audience and to another he speaks of bypassing the systems that work for pollution control.
Meanwhile for something different..
To the gent that thinks people vote for a candidate my very unscientific poll has more people voting for the least objectionable mostly amongst those believers that not voting Demican or Republicrat is throwing the vote away. The situation is growing worse in California as it moves to a one party system. The current outlook for the national election is just as gloomy as the last.
