    It's nice to control the future 15 years from now. Wanna buy a used car? 14 years from now go West, young man, go West.

    Wow, just so I understand correctly.

    The state that lacks adequate power generation and infrastructure to keep the power on in all of it's homes and continues to use rolling blackouts to limit power consumption wants to move to an all electric car system? How about getting people their electricity, so they have air conditioning and can live safely and comfortably with adequate power supply before making that committment?

    In Arizona, we never have rolling blackouts and have all the power we need, even when it's 115 and every building has the air conditioning cranked up. Yes, smaller state, but much bigger power generation with a nuclear reactor outside of Phoenix, lots of hydroelectric power generation and building solar networks.

    Mandating an all electric system when you can't provide your people all the necessary electricity for regular living is pure stupidity....

    Best to leave that Shit-hole now. It won't be long before Snake Pliskin will be the only person who could get you out.

    And no power to charge all the electric cars will have to run gas powered generators to charge them.

    There will be plenty of power, but they will only allow charging one at a time in the state. Gov Newdumb will issue a mandate.

    Do you guys doubt that CA politicians are far wiser than the free market?
    "The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments

    Honestly, I think this is more an attempt to keep Elon Musk and Tesla in California over the next few years...........

    Here is an idea, why not get rid of all the government fuel mileage and electric vehicle requirements and let the consumer sales decide what vehicles car companys make?

    Snake might need Jack Burton and the Pork Chop Express to help get them out!
