This one is hard to believe EVEN for nutbag CA state.

[LibLieSlayer]

Why do Californians elect people that are evil, insane or both?

[GeronL]

I’m surprised its not national

[Lazamataz]

They are paying people with IOU’s and they want to do WHAT???!?

[beelzepug]

The entire state of California needs to be fenced-in like the prison compound in “The Walking Dead”.

[SMARTY]

Free? Who pays for the electric?

[Rusty0604]

Shhh! Don’t give the liberals any more ideas.

[Fireone]

I’m poor, so I gets me a free ($28,000) Obama car, take it directly to the scrapyard and sell it for $2500, and I’m not po’ no mo’!

[faithhopecharity]

California already wastes billions of dineros on mass transit.... which was designed and sold on the premise that it would remove some of the excess cars and relieve traffic

[commish]

I can see the bangers loving this. Imagine how easy Drive-bys will be if they can’t hear you coming

” The car has been dubbed the “Mini-Beetle” for its diminutive dimensions — just 107 cm (40 inches) long, 118 cm (43 inches) wide and 137 cm (50 inches) tall with a total weight of just 130 kg (288 pounds) thanks to the blue fiberglass shell.

The car can actually seat a passenger alongside the driver. Its 36-volt batteries powers it at a top speed of 28 kph (18 mph) for a distance of up to 60 kilometers (38 miles).”

There is no freaking way a full grown human could fit in that thing, much less two of them!!

[GeronL]

especially not a welfare loafer who would use two of these things as skates if they exerted the effort needed to skate.

[Fresh Wind]

I actually saw a Leaf on the road this morning,a butt-ugly car in vomit green.

All those po’ folk in Kali will probably sell them and use the money to buy real cars (or drugs).

How about the Peel P50?

[Vendome]

Poor people don’t all live in homies.

How are they going to charge these things, much less pay for the electric bill.

[Yaelle]

I’m sure you don’t need to be legally in California to get your free $30k car, either. Wouldn’t it be racists to ask for ID?

[sheana]

California actually has its own auto insurance program ‘for the poor’. Did you expect anything less?

I’d never fit in that either.
