MY car is 44 years old.

My 1 ton truck is 47 years old.

Both run just fine.

[ridesthemiles]

I want to see the EV’s that are fire engines used to fight Calif wildfires.

[ridesthemiles]

EVERY racing team I know of will leave Calif.

Along with all the jobs attached.

Texas Builds 600 Miles Of Border Wall Using U-Haul Trucks From California

EL PASO, TX — Discarded U-Haul trucks abandoned by Californians immigrating to Texas have been repurposed as over 600 miles of new border wall along the America/Mexico border. Governor Greg Abbott confirmed that the wall is already cutting down on illegal immigration and California immigration since they've refused to send trucks back to California.

"The state has been inundated with an influx of U-Hauls because of all the Californians leaving their state," said Henry Gugelface, lead engineer of the Texas border wall project. "We were hesitant to send the trucks back to California because we are so tired of Californians. Utilizing the excess U-Haul trucks for the border wall killed two birds with one stone!"

[DennisR]

Oh yeah! 🙄

[adorno]

Don’t worry. The plan is for all states to do this and they will.

One word:

“The Environmental Impact of Lithium Batteries”

“...Environmentalists expressed unfounded concerns about fracking, but they need to be worried about replacing fossil fuels in the transportation and electric generating sector with electric vehicles and renewable energy where lithium, cobalt and other critical metals are needed to produce these technologies. Mining, processing, and disposing of these metals can contaminate the drinking water, land and environment if done improperly as seen from several examples. And, since China dominates the global market, it just switches what once was U.S. reliance on the Middle East to U.S. reliance on the People’s Republic.”

[eartick]

Are they also shutting down all offshore and land production that is used for plastic and vinyl in ALL manufactured EV cars?

Will they shutdown all importation of fossil fuels across State lines?

All fossil fuel for generation of power plants will be shutdown? Only wind and solar with ginormous battery banks, converter, batter chargers ginormous too match battery bank, Ginormous 12vdc to AC inverter.

Paint yourself into the corner California and by the time the paint to dries, California will be in ruins. MS 13 will rule the streets and keeper of provisions. All will be left to is stamp the mark of the beast on all citizens.

I saw someone comment somewhere else that they’ll be surprised if the US is still a nation in 13 years at the rate it’s going. I’m sure by the late 1930’s, many Germans questioned the longevity of the 1000 year reich. It was over by 1945!

soon enough, the chinese will come barreling through the US with lethal weaponry while the US military tries to field divisions of compost-patty fueled tanks and infantry units of homos, freaks and big-booty BLM ho’s supplied with eco-friendly bullets and green-grenades that won’t harm endangered foliage when they explode.

The 1987 TV miniseries "Amerika" was rather prophetic - except back then it was the Soviets who took over the country. Now, it'll be the ChiComms.

Oh, and if you haven't seen the miniseries, the Soviets enlisted the UN to assist in policing the defeated US. Not to say that the ChiComms would want the blue-helmeted UN lackeys to assist...

[SPDSHDW]

Let the chicoms invade CA, and glass it once their bulk of forces are there.

Maybe they’re aiming to get rid of all middle class persons, keeping only Mexican immigrants and rich tech guys? Guess they don’t yet realize Hispanic voters hate pronoun games and Bidenflation, and are voting Republican in November 2022 + November 2024.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

Exactly! I left 30 years ago. F—k that place!

Here in CA, charging a Tesla is most definitely much cheaper than paying for gasoline. YMMV.
