California Governor Gavin Newsom has vowed to end all car ownership for Californians as part of the ‘Great Reset’ agenda being pursued by Democratic politicians.
According to Newsom, the rising gas prices represent an opportunity for poor people to “liberate” themselves from “petro-dictators”:
California Gov. Gavin Newsom proposed sending money back to taxpayers to offset record-high gas prices but rejected calls to increase oil drilling, saying he wants to free the state “once and for all from the grasp of petro-dictators.”

Newsom’s proposal, announced during his annual State of the State address, would likely come in the form of a tax rebate. But the governor gave no specifics, saying he will work with legislative leaders “to put money back in the pockets of Californians to address rising gas prices.”
More welfare isn’t the answer here.
Furthermore the people who really need help now aren’t going to benefit from a rebate down the road. They’re workers with high credit card debt who are using apps to find the cheapest prices now and are still struggling.
These are people who may end up losing their jobs.
Dee Dee Myers, Newsom’s senior adviser, told reporters the rebate would likely total in the billions of dollars and be limited to people who have a car. People who are living in the country illegally would also be eligible for the rebate, which could occur as soon as this spring.
Sure. We couldn’t possibly exclude illegal aliens.
Instead of actually making it possible for people to afford to fill up their cars, Newsom will offer some sort of taxpayer-funded payment a few months from now while keeping prices high.
Genius. Sheer, genius.
As he did throughout the speech, Newsom offered “California’s leadership” as the alternative, calling clean energy “this generation’s greatest economic opportunity.”
For green energy investors who fund his campaigns. For the working class and the middle class, green energy is the death knell of economic and social mobility.
Newsom punched back at Republicans blaming Democratic policies for rising crime. He said California is funding increased crime-fighting efforts but will not “revert to heavy-handed policies that have marked the failures of the past.”
Like a decade ago when the streets were actually safe? Newsom might want to not go back then, but a whole lot of people do.

It’s all corruption In the past people got work close to home. That’s all they have to do. But there’s too many billions in profits lost from being sensible. They just want money. And they deliberately make people work miles away from their homes and where it would take 4hem hours to get a bus. They do it on purpose.
Proof positive that politics has nothing to do with improving things.
Well not making things better for the people Not intridoducing practical solutions. No they don’t Only solutions that suit the fascist corporations profits.
Go phuck yourself Newslime, I for one will never give up my internal combustion engine.
You will. You will have no choice in the end First gas prices will skyrocket over the next 20years and second, after 10 years old the manufacturers don’t have to supply spare parts for vehicles. By 2040 there will be very few gas cars on the road.
We should have stuck with the horse and buggy, we’d also save not having to join AAA or pay for repairs, etc.
Where you gonna keep that horse once everyone is public in housing.
Good point!
Unfortunately it will happen a lot sooner, especially with the mileage tax.
Then modern civilization will be no more. Thanks for the memories
They really get irritated if you can repair your own car to take the bank out of the picture!
Newslime likes to drink wine….vineyards use tractors, right?
I’ve always done all of my own repairs. Plus all five of my vehicles are pre-computer era. Therefore the government is completely out of the loop.
And will continue to use tractors, as the (elite) will maintain their cars and security protection, while us peasants are left with mass transit and Public Safety… the guy that follows the street sweeper and gives out tickets, the metermaid for our protection.
That’s right Blue states this will be our 3rd world class in sunny California.
Why are so many in CA sheep-like. It’s weird.
It’s easier to be stupid, it cost nothing and they feel safer because there are more of them.
I am the rarity
I dont think there is any testosterone left in Cali.
isn’t anyone going to take one for the team and end this one?
agenda 2030 says that everyone left alive will be corralled into condos near trainstations.
That’s exactly what I understand, this is there vision for the future… look at your city’s future vision… hell they have pictures of their intentions… all you have to do is open your eyes and look.
You will not have the comfort of your own car to go where ever when ever you want without any threat of contracting a deadly disease from a random stranger sitting next to you.
