People, you’re missing the point. The government wants control. If you can no longer travel, that’s a feature, not a bug.

The only way out of this mess is for the Federal government to mandate the production of EVs, to control their prices, to mandate installation of massive solar and wind power, and to rebuild the nation’s electrical grid. In six years.

What about increased costs due to loss of economy of scale in oil production? Petroleum will still be needed for some things.

The executive order will not prevent Californians from owning gasoline-powered cars or selling them on the used car market.

Used ICE vehicles will become valuable in California.

At some point, it will become sane again after the idiots disperse to other places.

..The only way out of this mess is ..

Mandating electric vehicles is not a way out , it is digging the hole deeper. If electric cars had been a good idea the market would have adapted them decades ago. It is only because of Government meddling that they have gone anywhere at all.

In France what they did was to retroactively make older cars have to comply with emissions standards that they were never designed for even when new.

Then they couldn’t be licensed if one lived in “low emissions” areas.

Moves like that is where the yellow vests movement came from.

Or CA could use extremely rigorous “safety” inspections to force older cars off the road. That is what is done in many countries to limit vehicle ownership.

No. The only way out of this mess is for the Federal government to CANCEL all the climate and zero-emissions madness.

CONTROL - First, last, and always - CONTROL

The Soviet Union had an internal passport system. Driving, trains, busses, bicycles, and even walking. In order to travel outside of your small county, you needed your ‘papers.’

The dirty BIG secret was they did not issue passports to over 80% of the populace. If you were fortunate enough to have the internal passport, you could lose it for the slightest infraction, or for no infraction at all.

Many democRATS envied the Soviet control. Some of those same RATS now envy the Chicoms and their iron fist.
