California’s Grand Theft Auto is a Public Policy – Not a Vehicle or Penal Code Violation

It is not a crime you commit – California’s Grand Theft Auto is a fundamental part of California’s decades long war against the automobile, the family car, and suburban home ownership.

Taking away the family car kills opportunities for life in suburbia and a vast range of individual and family freedoms.

And it is intentional.

Hence, California public policy wages wars against roads and bridges—as part of a larger campaign against individual freedom and private homeownership—all in favor of cowed individual obedience to the “public” collective.

Successes on these policy battlefields in California are even precisely measured! In Vehicle Miles [not] Traveled (VMTs), in  roads to nowhere, in suburban homes not built, in dams torn down, and in power plants and oil refineries shut down or not built at all.

Gasoline and sales taxes are stolen from building roads and bridges to subsidize empty buses and trains, ultimately leading to half built or still lesser roads and bridges to nowhere.

Among such visible monuments of decline are the Foresthill Bridge over an abandoned Auburn Dam site; concrete chunks along a promised California High Speed Rail route to Modesto; and an abruptly stopped, Sacramento cross town Elvas Freeway; and many more ruins of monuments across the California landscape.

Back in 1965, Mass Rapid Transit was promised to citizens of the county of Los Angeles, but was never built. Today there is  a notable spur from the Burbank airport to LA.

These unique California policies are the smog control hoaxes of the arrogant in power alleging impossible dreams—California first ending global cooling, then global warming and finally climate change—God’s own weather?

California’s net contributions to cleaning planet earth’s air and solving climate change are zilch, zero, nothing—statistically insignificant.

Other California policies more directly do endanger the health of human beings than pollution measured in parts per trillion.

Every year a one-day California wildfire creates more air pollution than a year of emissions from all of Californian’s cars and trucks.

Such “wildfires” are human made in part by arsonists, but mostly by public policy. A tree hugging war on tree harvesting of loggers and sawmills places fuel on your back porch.

These policies led to catastrophic fires literally killing 85 human beings and burning down a town named … yes … Paradise.

California’s Utopia seeks 35% zero emission cars by 2026 and ending the sale of gasoline vehicles by 2035. U.S. EPA’s Lee Zeldin and President Donald Trump, have asked Congress to repeal such California madness.
