Democrats can never make the situation so awful that they will not deliberately make it worse. Their control of the federal government means skyrocketing gas prices because of the Biden Regime’s War on Oil. Their tighter control of California means that, pricey as gas is in the country as a whole (currently $4.61), it is pricier still in the Land of Fruits and Nuts (currently $5.99). The price will climb even higher after Democrats make the product scarcer by forbidding the construction of new gas stations:
Last year, Petaluma Councilwoman D’Lynda Fischer led the way to prohibiting new gas stations in her city of 60,000 people, the Los Angeles Times reported. …
This has since kicked off a movement among Californians to bring about more green energy policies by banning the building of future gas stations.
According to liberal ideology, forcing people to drive around all day looking for a gas station will improve the weather.
Since Petaluma’s decision, four other cities in the Bay Area have followed its example.
Now, even Los Angeles is considering a new proposal that is aimed at banning future construction of new gas stations, in attempt to reduce the use of gasoline overall, CBS News reported.
Los Angeles City Councilman Paul Koretz said that this proposal is just a “small step” towards helping the planet and won’t affect people that much.
On the contrary, it won’t affect the planet at all, but will make driving in Los Angeles even more nightmarish than it is already.
As Islamic armies poured out of Arabia to conquer the mainly Christian Middle East, subjugated populations were not allowed to build new churches — or even to repair existing ones. Libs appear to have learned from the totalitarian Muslims of the Dark Ages, with whom they have so much in common:
In his proposal, current gas stations would also be limited — no new pumps or repairs would be permitted. Only electric vehicle charging stations would be allowed.
In addition to being inefficient, extravagantly expensive, unreliable, and prone to bursting into flames, electric vehicles are worse for the environment than proper cars — confirming that envirotyranny is about tyranny, not the environment.
I’ve gotten to the point that, FR and the Robinsons aside, I won’t shed a tear when California has a massive earthquake.
This First Church of Climate is the craziest thing I’ve ever seen. The Whacko Religionists of the past have got nothing on this bunch.
So people will have to drive out of the city to purchase gasoline. That seems counter-productive.
They don’t have the infrastructure in place to service EV’s.
environ-mental-whackos
next up...black market gasoline
High gas prices are no working so they’ll try removing the stations ,LOL
psssst. . . gotta a nickel can of nolead?
California is totally nuts.
Mary, Mary, come with me, on a hill we’ll take some tea and watch L.A. fall in the sea.
What absolute folly. So all the new far suburban housing developments that will come up over the next decade(s) will force the owners (renters!) to burn a couple gallons of gas to drive back and forth to fill up?
Governments in the west will force us into EVs if it kills them or not
This is all very ominous. I live in CA and trust me Newsom has a great chance of becoming President in 2024. He was measuring the drapes at the White House just yesterday.
This will be coming to all states soon—if not from Biden, then from Newsom. . .all very ominous. The great reset—we will all be pushed to electric cars or public transportation if there are no gas stations.
Don’t think this will stop in CA. It’s only just starting and will spread.
That said, as Scott Adams points out, we ARE living in the Golden Age.
Hell, close the existing ones while you are at it.
Hell, close the existing ones while you are at it.
It’s coming
Day after day, more people come to LA.
Don't you tell anybody that the whole place is shaking away
(There she goes!).
Where can we go when there's no San Francisco?
Better get ready to tie up the boat in Idaho.
I feel the same way. And I've never even been to California!
Most of the people living there have lost their minds.
I feel bad for the sane folks.
I going to take an extreme "act of God" to wake
those people up.
The movie “San Andreas” was one of the most uplifting flicks I’ve ever seen. What happier scenes than the destruction of LA and SF could there be?
