Bullshit......driving is a privilege and wearing a seatbelt not only saves lives but it saves money for everyone. Building a home n Cali is a privilege as well and they can mandate any type of construction practice they like. If retards like you had their way there would be no grounding conductors in home wiring and no hurricane strapping on hurricane zones etc etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member steve from amherst Posted May 13, 2018 Author Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted May 13, 2018 Hey if you want to live in a world where you are told everything to do and everyone makes your decisions for you , have at it. I prefer to make my own choices. That being said you cannot legislate human behavior. NH dosnt have a seatbelt law . 74 % of drivers wear one. Mass has a seatbelt law , 75% of drivers use one. NH dosnt have an auto ins law , 7 % of drivers don't have auto ins. NJ does have an auto ins law . 8 % of drivers drive without ins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a fact Yes but when it financially benefits people they generally will migrate to that position on their own instead of it being mandated. Solar does make sense in Cali and with trumps solar tariff it’ll be good for the USA. But in other situations it would be stupid like here where we hardly get any sun for a few months of the year and we have piles of hydro electricity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sal Rosenberg Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 CA has electricity shortages all the time . The enviornment is being destroyed to create hydro dams to produce electricity . When blackouts occur due to electricity shortages , the blacks run wild and pillage until the sun comes out the next morning . These reasons make this a viable building code .

Platinum Contributing Member steve from amherst Posted May 13, 2018 Author Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted May 13, 2018 Should we pass a law that no used sled can be sold without a toolkit and fuse changing directions included in the sale?

Gold Member BOHICA Posted May 13, 2018 Gold Member Share Posted May 13, 2018 I think mandated solar in Cali is a good idea. I plan on slapping some solar on my house and getting a plug in suv for my wife. Just got to do it by next year cause the federal subsidy expires at the end of 2019 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
