California government seems to be afflicted with a disorder in which they pass laws and add regulations to pretend to address problems without doing any of the basic things to improve governance and improve infrastructure that would obviously actually help address the problems. (e.g. enforce speed limits and distracted driving laws where they matter, not just on freeways)
It’s the same thing with the new income-based adjustments to electricity rates, which “helps reduce the burden of utility payments” without doing anything to address the fact that California has the among the highest cost of electricity anywhere. I don’t think the legislators think about this or care, because look! they are “addressing the problems”.
Will adding a require speeding bell in cars reduce car-related fatalities? Or just cause people to learn how to shut off or ignore the government-mandated bell?
