As Appearing in the California Globe
California policies and politics are at odds with the rest of the country
The disconnect between California policies and politics are at such odds with the rest of the country, it’s a wonder the other 49 states haven’t excommunicated the Golden State from the union.
Todays’ headlines are the perfect example:
- Rail strike potential grows, threatening to worsen supply chain backlogs, inflation
- California Looks to Ban Diesel Trucks at Ports by 2035
California’s Long Beach and Los Angeles ports process approximately 40 percent of container shipments coming through the U.S.
Does anyone in charge California care?
As the country’s supply chain backlogs still exist and continues to plague many industries, California’s nonsensical diesel regulatory rules threaten to worsen the supply chain – on top of a potential rail strike which could grind supplies throughout the country to a halt.
It’s as if the international bad guy Dr. Evil is trying to destroy America’s economy.
