Never took you for a conspiracy theory guy......
That said, just because your paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
Interesting choice of words... According to Websters Dictionary; Definition of conspiracy theorist: "a person who holds a theory that explains an event or situation as the result of a secret plan by usually powerful people or groups."

That being said, there are many reasons for which I dive into the reading of law & contract law information. The more I COULD tell you of what you likely dont know, even if I showed you the State/Federal written law itself would only make you want more information or you would look at me as if I had two heads on my shoulders. It only gets more absurd, as I always say, "you dont know, what you dont know.."
Just because California wants to ban petrol engines doesn't mean it will happen. Many of the roads across America are regulated by the federal government. If they do this crap the federal government can easily cut all road money. Cali is already financially crippled. It will only get worse with this crap. They will also run out many more companies and people in general.
A;though I agree somewhat, California and New York both are extremely beta testing States. California is my home State, too be honest thats almost hard to admit anymore. it used to impress people at least in a sense of envy. Now, I know for a fact it limits people from being hired in many industries I touch within my own as a business owner and partner(s) in others.., as it appears in volume 42 of the United States Code, beginning at section 2000e. Title VII prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin. The Civil Rights Act of 1991 (Pub. L. 102-166) (CRA) and the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009 (Pub. L. 111-2) amend several sections of Title VII. Apparently being from Kalifornistan doesn't fall under the discrimination act yet.
And.., well yes and no.. "The vast majority of roads in the United States are maintained by the state or lower-level agencies. However, some roads are maintained by the federal government. Most of these are minor roads in national parks and national forests. However, a few roads have been developed to connect sites in the national park system or to protect routes of scenic or historic significance, and some roads in national parks or National Parkways."
Unfortunately there's this "thing" called 'Baseline Budgeting'; Baseline Budgeting for an example is when lets say in this case.. A road crew gets done with their work early or ahead of scheduling for a task or job. Well the next year, the government whether State or Federally funded says "Hey, we're being incredibly efficient here, we can cut some funding and put it somewhere else where we might need it." So to insure that NEVER happens or is mitigated to NOT happen, there are people and positions designated to run up the clock, spend the entire budget so they can not only get it again the following year.. but ask for more.
Another reason government programs ALWAYS grow and never get trimmed down, downsized, or streamlined whatsoever.. same concept engages and follows. Upset we're in excess of $90 Trillion dollars in debt yet? yea that $20T number is a generalized number and the minimal number shown to the public. My tax accountant is a former US Congressional Auditor and a bit on "We the Peoples" side.
However true all that is, California since 2011 has been getting quite the reputation for being an almost ANTI-business friendly environment. Although you see a few Toyota distribution centers in Cali, Toyota has moved its Financials and HQ to Texas, along with everyones most hated company; Nestle whose left for West Virginia, Theres another major automotive market company with over 3400 connected salvage yards nation wide for a used parts giant. They moved to HQ Wisconsin and there's another 254 major companies since 2011, I'm sorry, my mathing is incorrect.. 251 companies, some bigger and others small. Its why I started my company in Nevada and moved here last December.
California does however seem to be blind and deaf and dumb too in thinking that with their economy they have the GDP of the 6th or 7th of "COUNTRIES" in the world. Well, lets take away all the military contracts and income, Lets take away all the Medical subsidies, College education grants and subsidies among a few others and Ohhhhhh look... All of a sudden you fit in somewhere between New Jersey and North Dakota [No offense to the inhabitants thereof].
Yes they are financially crippled, but that doesn't stop them from passing legislation as early as last month that will raise Gas prices up $0.42 more in taxes and upping registration fees as little as $25 to $142 depending on vehicle. Government ONLY gets its money one of two ways, doesnt matter if its at the State level or the Federal level - Taxation or Printing it. They're all from the lowly city, County, State itself, even the Federal government itself has been since 1871 (look up the ACT of 1871 for your proof). each and every one of them including the DMV and the Courts are ALL corporations, many private but nonetheless all incorporated & designed for profit. And all of it comes around in a circle over and over. Is it no wonder we are on a path we are? High in division, distracted by the elements of all things in life.
One day we must entertain a truly deep thread on enumerated rights..
I'll leave a fair and open question for any and all to comment on, provided that the comment is intellectual and based upon FACTS (pesky things they are, I know)..
Question; Do you believe that a corporation under the threat of violence or coercion, should be made able to make or force you to become a customer or subscribe to their services?
Before any of you answer that half witted or just lash out in angry commentary because your paradigm is being challenged.. truly read into that properly and really type out your thoughts and comments with a bit of adulting if you would please.
I don't want this thread to get so out of control that a mod has to put a quash on it and take away anyone's right to free speech and thoughts. I know thats not the current trend right now by what we see anymore. Please remain on topic...
