California: electric vehicles are on fire!

California Governor Gavin Newsom banned internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles in California by 20235 , ostensibly to reduce pollution.

That pipe dream went up in smoke with the wildfires that are still consuming much of the LA area.

California provides an ideal example of why EVs are never going to be ready for prime time.

They're far more expensive than conventional vehicles, and repair and insurance costs are outrageous.

Mike McDaniel : Will the wildfires provoke the spread of sanity among Californians who keep voting worse and worse D/S/C politicians into office? If they keep EV mandates, the answer is obvious, he says.
