The more I read about it, the crazier it gets. She is trying to install California-style cap-and-trade laws and eliminate gas-powered vehicles by 2035. Part of the plan calls for a “per mile” vehicle fee to make up for a loss in gas tax revenue. Once again, all well and good for city dwellers but economically disastrous for rural New Yorkers who routinely drive long distances to acquire basic necessities. And exactly how farming will be affected as they attempt to squash diesel fuel is unclear. Electric tractors? And who questions these plans for renewable energy sources will likely affect upstate New Yorkers disproportionately as well? Where exactly do you think they are going to put their solar farms and windmills? And again, how is all this electrical energy going to be generated from solar and wind power alone? Technology tells us it is impossible in this time frame, if ever! It’s pure insanity! Get a grip, New Yorkers; your political choices have courted you for disaster.
