Twisted Eco-Socialism in Sacramento With ‘Free’ Zipcars For the Poor

The City of Sacramento, under the short reign of former State Sen. Darrell Steinberg (D), now Sacramento Mayor, just approved free electric Zipcars for residents of Sacramento’s public housing projects. Wow!

But don’t worry taxpayers – “The program is funded through a $1.3 million grant from the California Air Resources Board using cap-and-trade funds that businesses pay to offset their carbon emissions,” according to the Sacramento Bee. In other words, the money extorted from California businesses for the privilege of being allowed to continue doing business in this state, is paying for these free cars for people who don’t work.
Cars are bad…. except for the poor

Not that it matters much. Most of the people who don't have cars also don't have driver's licenses, so they can't use the cars anyway!

I'd never heard of "zipcars" until I read this article...

Read it as zip guns at first.


Might be a safer option on further reflection.
