True so instead, cause them the problems. One reason why gas prices are high is because there are too many standards for the refineries. If they could all just make one formula, it would cut costs
So first step, make a federal mandate on gasoline standards and outlaw states from requiring their own special formulas.
This will create a lot of blow back so as a compromise, allow states that produce more than 50% of their gasoline to set their own standards.
California will refuse and the state will grind to a halt.
Repeat this with electricity. Don't allow them to create their own standards or dictate to the rest of the nation.
Eventually, they will get the hint or their citizens will hang them
It sure would. For crying out loud, we even have FReeepers who advocating taking the vax and bragging on it, to be allowed to do things they enjoy, which nobody had the right to deny them in the first place.
Do it. Do it now.
everyone could just walk down to the port and pick up whatever they ordered
shut up and get on the bus
Recharging an EV is but one of the myriad of problems associated with this lunacy.
The battery pack in the New Hummer H3 weighs over 3,000 pounds to move a 9,000 pound vehicle. The gross vehicle weight of a typical tractor-trailer combination is 20 tons or so. How much cargo weight will have to be forfeited in order to allow for the added weight of the battery pack, which will surely be several tons. To say nothing of the increased costs due to the lower cargo capacity per trip.
‘
An EV typically weighs 40% more than a comparable ICE vehicle, due to the weight of the battery pack. Don’t forget to factor in the increased wear on tires, infrastructure and roads, bridges, etc., along with the concomitant maintenance needs and further damage to Mother Earth Gaia as a result...
Much of our governing elites are beyond belief stupid and reckless.
Idiots. That’s not a plan. That’s a wish, and you know what they say about wishes in one hand, etc. Where’s the plan to increase the electric grid capacity and charging stations, and even the vehicles. Where’s the plan with the specs, What, Who, How, and When, the environmental studies, the budget, and all the rest.
exactly
the plan is shut up and get on the bus
none of the above
evil
Much of our governing elites are beyond belief stupid and reckless.
nope
they know exactly what they are doing
they are evil tyrants
and it will be shut up and get on the bus
It was just easier for me to leave.
This will never happen. They might as well pass a law banning mosquitos.
The technology is not available to achieve this lunacy.
Have they started making all electric cranes yet?
Oh, no, it’s not deliberate. /the biggest lie
Maybe they are trying to turn California into one big pristine, unoccupied state park.
Useful idiot voters getting exactly what they wanted and getting it good and hard.
Mull the Stone Age, dumbasses.
For what it’s worth, a lot of modern diesel trains are really electric trains with diesel generators. The idea being that a powerful electric motor is best suited for starting motion with a very heavy load. But to your point, battery capacity isn’t close to being able to remove the diesel engine.
Beyond stupid,,,
Nobody should rule out what you said. They want all of us cooped up in huge “smart cities” living in austere boxes to control us 24/7.
I am kind of hoping for a massive alien invasion to put a stop to these Schwab type AI pushing freaks.
