So stop shipping any petroleum based products to them immediately.
I mean nothing that has petroleum as an ingredient in any form.
Then let the fun begin.

Insanity
Not gonna happen unless they relish shooting themselves in both feet.
A better idea. Lets ban electric cars. After all our future master, AI, is very power hungry and electric car charging will rob AI of the power it needs to shine.
All blue states.
“So stop shipping any petroleum based products to them immediately.

Absolutely, they need to experience it now not after it is too late and they drag us all into the insanity. But it won’t happen, we are not very good at practicing preventative maintenance.
And, that would be just about everything if you include transportation costs and petrol usage. Tires, just about all pastics, med instruments packaging and a lot of parts. If they are really buying in. REALLY buy in. Sounds like dumbassery to me. Oh, and a smidge of hypocrisy.
Insanity. Pure insanity.
Well,it’s on to the Supreme Court.
They basically already lost, the states needed the waiver to not be accountable to the interstate commerce clause, they literally have no right to those bans at all.
This is specifically a federal issue and the constitution recognizes that.
Electric cars are the new compact fluorescent light bulbs: once ballyhooed, now treated as toxic waste and an embarrassment.
I’m pretty sure that they won’t go along with the bans.
Only if they want to commit economic suicide will they go with their insane policy. But then, these are the blue states, so, insanity is prevalent there.
However, the federal government is the one charged with regulation of interstate commerce, and banning any product, especially gas-powered vehicles, is the same as affecting interstate commerce. So, the feds, including congress and the White House and even SCOTUS, will declare the bans as unconstitutional and the sates will have no standing to issue regulations that affect interstate commerce.
Well, the abandoned ship that’s on fire in the middle of the Pacific with 3,000 cars, including 800 EV’s, is doing it’s small part to help.
I wonder if the automobile equivalent of the LED bulb will arrive on the scene.
So the liberal coastal elites are for this. Notice all the states are on the coast.
Is that still burning? One of the things about the LA fires that stuck out was the batteries got hot enough when they burned to literally burn into the ground.
All these states are the ones preventing new electric plants and are already having some trouble keeping the lights on. What do they think will happen if all cars are electric?
What foreign power is attacking the US and destroying our petroleum fuel infrastructure?
Russia, China. The DNC, Sierra Club?
