Oh My, I'm so impressed. How come you didn't know to lock the rook in place before you took the baseline?
Nevermind, I know why, you're bad at chess.
California bans building parking lots near transit stops

Do you have anyone to call to fuck you correctly?
You are probably WOKE, Never Mind.
Rephrase please.
I'll take that as a NO.
I can't answer because I don't understand the question.

The China policy was one that the entire world SHOULD have adopted. It would have been a start, at least.
Instead, China discontinued the policy.

We still haven't figured out how not mandating parking lots is the same as banning them.

Maybe we're having two different conversations. I'm not questioning that homes cost more in California (and you are correct in that all the price inputs make building more expensive in California than elsewhere - but that's a state level thing, not national) but property taxes are lower in California than Texas due to Prop 13.
But all that still avoids the issue that NIMBYism dominates in California and when you don't allow supply to keep up with demand you have the imbalance that California does.

In a certain sense we are pushing businesses out of the state with our high taxes, unfavorable business environment etc. etc. but I don't follow the logic that we should not allow new businesses here or encourage new businesses to start here or move here. That's how a state dies.
We are not full. People claimed the state was full when we had 20 to 30 million and now we have 40 million. There is room to grow here. You need smart growth like allowing more density in urban areas such as legislation in the OP is all about.

This legislation prevents no one from having a car. If you choose to live in the City without a car you can rent Zip cars or whatever the service is that lets you get cars for the hour or however long you need. You can borrow a friend's car. Lots of people live in SF without cars. But whether people choose to have a car or not isn't really relevant to this legislation.

I don't think you understand how this legislation works (hence your title being incorrect). The legislation says nothing about not being able to build parking. It says cities can't mandate the same amount they previously did for developments next to public transportation. Developers can still build more parking if they want to pay for it. But people who will live in this housing are the type that are less likely to use cars. If you're a family with kids and you want multiple parking spots you'll probably choose to live in one of thousands of other apartment buildings.
If cities do nothing, the next step for the Left is banning it.
You lost. Deal with it.
He either knows that and is just trolling us or he's really insane.
That's exactly what everyone says when they see you coming!
He doesn't have a clue what he's talking about, ever.
It's the world's 5th largest economy, home to silicon valley and Hollywood. It's a hotbed of culture and innovation. It's a demonstration of American's success and ingenuity. No wonder you hate it, you fucking Russian troll.
You always look like such an idiot.
