Here on the Central Coast of California my power has been shut off 5 times. Without my generator to power the refrigerator and freezer would have both shut down. The economic impact would have been huge.

How are they going to charge their electric cars?

Virtually everything about California makes me want to sing three special words:

So, in effect, the RATs in Kalifornia are stealing all the home portable generators.

Anyone who goes to those homeless streets on Jefferson will notice gas generators everywhere. Heck, I even see them jimmy-rig electricity by tapping into the lamp post.

Jafet Serrato is illiterate.

How the heck did she ever get a job writing for any publication?

Back when we had a Bill of Rights, this would be a violation of the takings clause. But that was then. This is now.

California will go green until everything in the refrigerators matches!

Two examples in this article.

First is well know from Soylent Green in which Charlton Heston talks to Edward G. Robinson who is laboriously generating electricity from a stationery cycle.

Other is a prison where prisoners have to do the same.

If that bill gets to Newsom’s desk, he will sign it into law.

It applies to lawn mowers as well. How are they going to know how old the gas engine is once they prohibit stores from selling them? I would think there would be a large demand for rebuilt motors.

The example in the article references electric generators. If there is no electric power, how do you recharge the battery to run the generator? I guess you could have propane generators.

I think Newsome is trying to empty out California, and reduce their burden of so many Californians needing services and benefits.

It’s all part of the plan that forces Californians to move out of state and turn other red states blue or purple. ;)
