California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on global warming (AP):

"Let's work together to create the world's best market-based system to
limit and slash emissions," Schwarzenegger said. "Everyone must do his
or her part to pitch in and to make sacrifices, to give our environment
the type of strong and committed protection that all Californians demand."

Market-based system? There is no demand in the free market for the
non-production of carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons or chlorofluorocarbons.
Ain't no one lining up to "buy" the absence of these gases.

Regulation is never market-based. Arnold should be intellectually honest
and just come out and say he wants to regulate greenhouse gases. There's
nothing wrong with the judicious use of regulation -- the free market is
not the ideal solution to all of our problems, and in many cases a
regulated market is economically and socially superior to the free market.

The "market-based system" nonsense is what happens when a Republican
tries to survive in a liberal state.

Hear, hear.
