Pete Buttigieg Wants You to Stop Driving Cars
Town Hall ^ | 09/03023 | Sarah Arnold

Posted on 09/03/2023 7:06:48 AM PDT by Enlightened1

No gas stoves, no gas-powered cars, and no beer are just a few things the Biden Administration has put the kibosh on. 

The Democrat-controlled White House is now fear-mongering Americans into believing all cars cause climate change and promote racism and should, therefore, be banned. 

 

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg appointed an Obama-era group made up of 24 "leading experts" to advise him on "transportation equity," claiming the privilege of owning a car ignites "systemic racism" and should be banned because of their negative impact on the environment. 

Members of the Advisory Committee on Transportation Equity include "spatial policy scholar" Andrea Marpillero-Colomina, who says, "All cars are bad" and calls for "zero emission transit." 

However, she told the Free Beacon that she is not "advocating for a complete erasure" of cars but hopes to convince Buttigieg to re-direct the U.S. from relying on private motor vehicles.

Veronica Davis also claimed cars are the "problem" and divide communities because, according to her, vehicles are a "status symbol" that only privileged white people own. 

"This isn't anti-car propaganda, but vehicles have wreaked havoc on the environment and communities," Davis said, according to her book about inclusive transportation. "Racism shaped the urban and suburban areas, where even today we see the residual effects."

Scrapped by the Trump Administration, the committee will advise Buttigieg on "promising practices to institutionalize equity into agency programs, policies, regulations, and activities."

In 2021, President Joe Biden issued an executive order that required federal agencies to "pursue a comprehensive approach to advancing equity for all." The agency reportedly has to conduct an "equity assessment" to identify policies that create "systemic barriers" for minority communities.

Cars seem to be popular among blacks youth. They hijack or steal them all the time. Making ownership of a private car illegal is unAmerican in the extreme.

In the Bible, it says that near the end God would send a Great Delusion. He didn’t say there would be only one kind.

Our society has gone completely loopy.

Sure, let’s test it first though by having the government stop using vehicles. Then we can decide whether or not to ban them publicly.

As evidenced by them taking 2.5x longer to sell than a traditional combustion engine powered car and a hybrid car.

They're also hitting the secondary used car market in decent numbers here. When I say "secondary used car market" they're not on dealer lots. They're showing up on secondary dealer / independent used car / small car dealer lots.

When cars show up on these lots they're to be avoided. Something wrong with em that dealers didn't want and auctioned off.

Bump.

There are a lot of these nutty Wealthy Bureaucraps in Northern Virginia that should do exactly what you suggested.

It is TIME to “Leave us alone and let us live our lives in peace”. We will work through this fine.

If that is not satisfactory we will deal with it.

So who cares if the Democrats are empowered to take my cars from me and force me on to dangerous public transportation, what REALLY matters to me is that my Senator, John Cornyn, is a RINO, so I’m going to teach the GOP a lesson and help replace him with a Democrat, because there’s nothing worse than a RINO!

(the fact that Cornyn has consistently voted to allow me to keep my cars is irrelevant, I need to teach the damn GOP a lesson - and if they come for my cars, I simply won’t comply - let’s see what they can do then!)

“The Democrat-controlled White House is now fear-mongering Americans into believing all cars cause climate change and promote racism and should, therefore, be banned.”

“She told the Free Beacon that she is not “advocating for a complete erasure” of cars but hopes to convince Buttigieg to re-direct the U.S. from relying on private motor vehicles.”

These two quotes from the article cannot both be true.

Typical Townhall.
