The hydrocarbon elephant in the room Newsom refuses to address
By Ronald Stein |January 13th, 2023|Energy|1 Comment

California Governor Gavin Newsom refuses to address the hydrocarbon elephant in the room, namely that The End of Oil Would be the End of Civilization as the products manufactured from crude oil played a major role in building the world from one billion to eight billion people in the past 200 years.
With his narrow focus on the useless transition to so-called renewables, no matter what, Newsom is apparently unable to understand that renewables of wind turbines and solar panels cannot manufacture anything.
Today’s dangerous emphasis on wind and solar power for intermittent electricity is creating a lack of investment in the future. It is also causing a shortage of fuels for planes, ships, militaries, and space programs, all of which are manufactured from the substance Newsom seems to hate most — oil, that is, black goal, Texas Tea, or petroleum. But Newsom stubbornly refuses to talk about the “products crisis” his energy policies are creating.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Bad things happen when the populus starts starving, freezing, dying from heat, and has dystopia in the streets.

Gavin...  the populus fights back.  And an angry mob isn't always a peaceful one.

One of my former plant manager bosses, at one point in his career, had a plant in CA. 

Even back in the late '80's and early '90's he told me that the regulatory community had an almost Green Peace like activist slant to it.
They even admitted they'd celebrate it they could run the plants out of South Coast.
