So California is trying to make electricity more affordable by forcing more people to use electricity while at the same time limiting its production and forcing extremely expensive “green” garbage?

Only in government maffs does this make sense.

If I may be brutally frank: For those of us who don’t live, or who no longer live in CA, what the eff do we care? Cynical but true.

“Richer” does not necessary parallel “higher income”.

If I have 10M saved for retirement,a paid off house, but I am only taking 40k a year to live on what do I pay?

“The incentive to go off grid gets greater and greater.”put

To put in solar in the rest of our cul de sac, they will have to cut down native oaks and redwood trees. That will not fly with the greenies.

They just finished solar on the last house on a nearby cul de sac.

The home only had 1200 square foot of roof for the new solar panels. The cost was $50,000 for the solar and more to come for the external and in home wiring.

They didn’t

It was only white Male LANDOWNERS originally.
Race aside, the got the rest correct. Wymyn voting has overall been a disaster, because due to their inherent nature, they vote by emotions and not logic.
