 With legislation like this being pushed it is no wonder that state spending is out of control.  State agencies must be allowed to purchase and use small scale power equipment as it is needed.  Perhaps the representative thinks that the workers of state agencies are always within reach of a power outlet and can get by with lugging around a truck load of battery packs not to mention the astronomical increase in costs related to having to purchase bateries on this scale.  If environmentalism is the motive for this nonsense consider all of the pollution created when the batteries of this new equipment fail and must be disgarded. 

As for mandating retail space used it is not the government's business how much space is devoted to any product or type of product in a privately owned store.  WE HAVE A FREE MARKET!  Consumer demand for such products will define how retailers sell products. 

 This bill is another attempt to:

1. Interfere with the rights of businesses to stock and sell their choice of goods. In other words, end free market capitalism.

The state and federal government are on the way to deciding what products and services are available, how much they cost, how they must be displayed on shelves, whot the business owner must hire, how much the business owner must pay his/her employees, what kind of health insurance and the price the business owner must furnish his/her employees, and determine every other aspect of how businesses do business.

2. Make it so costly for businesses and consumers to purchase any goods and services not approved by the government they have no choice but bow down to the state manipulator's.

Since Gregoire and the Democrats in this state have bought into the man-made global warming hoax hook, line, and sinker, we can expect the costs of everything to rise enormously every year while our choices become more and more limited.

 Do I have to mention the Jet and Turbine engines yet again?  All please study the massive amounts of pollutants they spew into the sky every minute of everyday.  I'm just guessing but I'd say one jet engine produces as much polllutants that a few thousand of lawn mowers would and maybe even much higher than that.

Batterys, and the ones introducing these bills are probably anti mining as well. Well to make those batterys, I'm sure there is more polluted water and ground water from that process than the biggest mine that you could find in the US. Batterys are made out of alot of nasty stuff. And are considered as toxic waste.

Someday you all will find out, God will say "you all called me stupid, I put that oil there for you all to use as fuel"

But naaa we don't want polluted air do we?  Well good old untreated engine exhaust is way healtier than the radioative Iodine released from nuclear reactors. And those are going to be considered as the clean way to go. Yeah pretty crazy stuff.
