People, you’re missing the point. The government wants control. If you can no longer travel, that’s a feature, not a bug.
By 2045 Califagifornia will have a population of 10 million
No nukes = no upgraded grid = live in hovels in your “walkable cities” PEASANTS!
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.
Used ICE vehicles will become valuable in California.
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.
My Yukon XL started and ran with no issues when it was 24 below just recently.
Wonder what people in 2035 will tell Nuisance what he can do with his executive order?
There is going to be a major shortage of ICE vehicles leading up to 2035.
The intent is to ban any type of hydrocarbon powered vehicle. Californication already has some ban on diesel powered trucks which escalates to a complete ban in the near future. This is already adding greatly to the cost of goods received at the CA seaports. At first I thought that this would be an opportunity for OR and WA to capture much of the CA seaport traffic as they don’t have ICE restrictions ... yet.
The article cites that OR and WA may be adopting the CA restrictions. This will drive up the cost of goods received at any west coast seaport. It will soon be cheaper to make port in Mexico and truck cargo through to Texas.
These evil politicians are killing America, our very own people are killing us
A horse ranch sounds fun.
Business and political fads have consequences. As pointed out in Charles Mackay’s appropriately titled book “Extraordinary Popular Delusions And The Madness of Crowds.
If we just had a Law mandating ALL Public Employee’s and Officers of the Court were PROHIBITED from using, owning or possessing an ICE powered vehicle for any reason, all the problems of EV’s would be fixed.
Trillions would need to be spent just for the chargers at this rate...!
