and who else needs that electricity more than california????? You're right, Arizona might sell that electricity to someone else. They won't get nearly as much in return.

You can't tell me even the threat of the boycotting of arizona businesses, doesn't scare those in charge just a little?

They can sell it to Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, and probably even Texas. L.A. is acting like Mexico City Jr., and that's probably one of the nastiest major cities in the world.

If it does, it's a poor reflection on them. I hope they aren't so spineless to allow a city full of illegals to make them regret their decision.

That's not really my point. Immigration issue or otherwise, the threat of a loss of businesses can't sit well with people.

And those places need it just as much as California??? You are sorely mistaken. Those other places, at least I haven't heard, have no problem with supplying their own electricity. If Arizona chooses to sell the electricity to other places, there's no way they get the same amount of money in return.

I bet you Arizona is sitting there thanking them for doing it, especially since California can't pay it's bills it owes them, or anyone else for that matter. California is bankrupt, and if it continues on the Little Mexico track it's on, it will look like Mexico sooner than later, after everyone that is important there leaves and let's the illegals destroy what little it has left.

I thought LA and California for that matter were about broke but they want to lose revenue with their posturing? :crazy:

Why wouldn't they?? They can charge more for less, it's about supply and demand. They give California a HUGE discount on amount purchased, but they won't have to if someone else buys it for more.

If anyone thinks that a grandstanding vote by the LA city council will have any effect on the commerce between the city and Arizona, you are a moron.

thanking them for the potential loss of business??? I seriously doubt that.


the arizona governor on a sports-related boycott

"Urging Major League Baseball to take away next year's All-Star Game from Phoenix is the wrong play. In Arizona, both proponents and opponents of Senate Bill 1070 have stated that economic boycotts are an inappropriate and misguided response to an issue that is clearly worthy of proper public debate and discourse. Put simply, history shows that boycotts backfire and harm innocent people."

my point being, those other places don't need it. They have their own. California doesn't have their own, at least not enough to supply everybody.

So?? They sell to whoever needs it at the time, minus L.A. Not a hard concept to grasp. The decision, if it even means anything, will hurt L.A. MUCH more than Arizona.

Its $7.7M. In the grand scheme of Arizona economics, it's not that much.

And there's no way MLB will move the All Star Game from Arizona next year. It's nice political grandstanding by an idiot, but not even Bud Selig is stupid enough to take a stand on this.

who's out there that borders Arizona is clamoring for the Hoover Dam's electricity? They might be. Don't live out there. But I've heard much more about California needing it much more than any other bordering state.

Just because you offer the electricity, doesn't mean there are going to be buyers - especially at a jacked-up rate when the need for electricity isn't all that high in the first place.

If he's going to just make random points that can't be connected, it's not fair to use logic in your argument...

Well then they keep it and it's cheaper for their own customers. See how that works??

yeah, she's so unconcerned about it that she felt the need to come out against it more than a year in advance.

this isn't an immigration issue. this is an economic issue for arizona. if boycotts do happen, they'll be plenty concerned. what's the first step to boycotts happening? People asking for them.
