Been looking at New cars. Dealers say electrics are not selling.I suspect there have bee incentives for dealers to order. 20 to one the state of Cal buys them and gives them to the typical jerk off employee. Tessa is super late with their $35000 piece of crap. Bet it is $45000 when salami sucker Musk finally sells it. It will be like Edsel. A driverless Tesla will ram a Mosque and the Muslims will behead owners of such, definitely a Marketing challenge. Who wants 3 toothed fanatics with Porta potty breath chasing your poorly charged car with a sword?

Comrades

Relax.

Plutocrats know you peasants love your dangerous guns, your polluting wasteful autos.

Sacrifice for the common good is the best way……….resistance useless.

The State…… knows best…..always….

Uh-huh. Tell me again why our fearless leaders keep pushing for more housing and economic development–both of which bring MORE vehicle traffic, congestion, crime and demands on resources. A shift from fossil fuels to “clean” energy is not going to happen overnight, and forcing the shift is not going to be without undesirable consequences. I think Sacramento is a menace to the people of California.

Legal plunder, (the force of government), the theft by law of taking from one and giving to another. Government may think they are smarter than me and need to hold my hand, but they are severely confused and wrong. I will get the last say in all matters…with my feet.

As the USA recovered from the long recession, electric vehicle ZEV’s sales were less in 2015 than sales in 2014. Electric car sales actually fell from 3.5% of total US cars sales in 2014 to only 2.9% of total car sales in 2015. For the1% that pay 50% of all California state income taxes, they may be the ones that have registered 3% of the 32 million registered vehicles that are alternative energy driven. Possible reasons for declining sales may have been “daily charging anxieties” and/or “range anxieties” for those ZEV’s. Most electric cars, except for the ultra-expensive Tesla’s, have a range of less than 100 miles and take in excess of 20 hours to charge at households’ 120 volt power.

38 million California citizens have registered the 97% of the 32 million registered vehicles that are fossil fuel driven and generally more affordable than the alternative energy driven vehicles: a)Nearly 25% of Californians 38 million live below the poverty line, b)California has more than 33% of the nation’s welfare recipients, c)California is home to 12% of the nation’s population, but startlingly 21% of the nation’s homeless population, d)The majority of California renters: Nearly 3 million households – pay more than 30% of their income toward rent, and roughly – 1.5 million households pay more than 50% of their income toward rent.

We wish Musk and other ZEV manufacturers continued success with the fuzzy math: ZEV’s are manufactured 100% from fossil fuels. They get there electrical recharging energy from fossil fuels, and sometimes from subsidized (public monies) solar or wind energy. In addition, Tesla’s are heavily subsidized Federal and State (public monies). They pay no taxes for the roads they are using, but that may change as legislators have plans in progress to implement higher registration fees and vehicle mileage taxes to help generate monies into the depleted Highway Trust Fund. They incur a huge inconvenience of the 10 to 40 HOURS PER WEEK for recharging vs. the 5 MINUTES A WEEK to fuel a non-electric vehicle.

If Moonbeam was serious he would immediately issue an Executive Order mandating that ALL PERSONS that can be classified as a “Public Employee” be FORBIDDEN from using any Personal Conveyance that uses a Carbon Based fuel for Personal Transportation to and from their respective workplaces.

THEY CAN ALL USE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION!
