The 2035 is set far enough in the future that it is unrealistic, and just for political pandering. If Newsome really wanted to get gasoline cars off the road, or at least have less polluting cars, he would slap on an additional $2 per gallon gas tax. Then like Europe, we would have a plethora of 1 liter displacement tiny cars.

Newsom Bans Cars To Prevent People From Escaping California

SACRAMENTO, CA—In a move to prevent Californians from fleeing by the millions, Gavin Newsom announced a ban on gasoline automobiles this week.

The law will make it so that Californians can't drive away and escape the state in a matter of hours, forcing them to instead form migrant caravans and make the treacherous trek across the blistering deserts of the Southwest.

"Now, they'll have to cross the desert on foot," Newsom said as he handed down the order. "I'll show them to flee my progressive utopia! Ha ha ha ha ha!"

A commentator who left California for business purposes says he's still being charged and paying stuff years later. He said California was like herpes, it never goes away.

Newsom will edict that Californians with household incomes exceeding 140k a year will be obligated to quarter at least one illegal immigrant and one homeless person per household, determined by lottery. The lottery can be escaped by agreeing to higher tax rates.

Can you get a 2 for 1 if you house a homeless illegal?
