Measure B has 1/3 of the solar plan for L.A. excluding other building trades, uses older technology, gives one union, the IBEW control of all other unions by it setting all the requirements for outside union participation. 80% of the work installing solar panels (PV) is general contractor work not electrical, but the IBEW wants it all for themselves. Measure B excludes thermal solar which is half the cost of PV solar entirely at the request of the electrical union, why? little electrical
These insider tactics are built upon the insider's confidence that the average citizen of Los Angeles feels completely helpless about his/her own city government.
When people feel helpless about some area of their lives they try to ignore it.
And so are easily fooled.
But when people begin to feel they have some way of affecting things,

These insider tactics are built upon the insider's confidence that the average citizen of Los Angeles feels completely helpless about his/her own city government.
When people feel helpless about some area of their lives they try to ignore it.
And so are easily fooled.
But when people begin to feel they have some way of affecting things,
They figure it out...
And then they get quite angry!
