Jesse Watters talking about this, right now.
We’ll be lucky to see even one. But if that charger is finally built, it’s sure to be doozy as $7.5 billion can buy a lot of extras. It might even have a built-in car vacuum! No extra charge.
And what happened to the $7.5B? Did it disappear?
This entire thing is a scam. I’ll bet every penny of that money will be spent before a single “federally funded” charging station is actually built.

Well, in California, they might be waiting for the $30 billion high-speed train track to be built.
Build Back Better is still in the destruction phase.
But the money has been spent, right? LOL!
Sorry, sprinkling is not going to do that for me.
My truck has a 600 mile range.
The best range for an EV that I know of is about half that.
With a time to charge for an EV at about two to three hours I am not going to trade my internal combustion vehicle for a EV just to alleviate some woke Leftist imaginary fears of a Global Warming catastrophe which of course will never be alleviated
I agree.
There is no problem with the concept. But it should live or die on its merits.
it should get no government subsidies or tax breaks.
It should live or die on its sales to the consumer without any government favors.
All graft, all the time.
Has any of the money been spent? How much, and on what?
As long as the politically connect got paid and The Big Guy got his cut, what’s the problem?
\s
BBB is not Build Back Better, it is Bribe Biden Bigger.
I would venture to say that the “green new deal” is an even bigger bust than the EVs. For a president to support something like this is nothing short of criminal.
IIRC-—THE CHARGERS THAT LOS ANGELES CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZED PAYMENT FOR ALL HAVE CHRONIC PROBLEMS WITH THE CORDS BEING CUT & REMOVED.
That’s less then 15K per Congress Critter. That’s not enough for them to have a good weekend. Then divide that by 3 years and it’s not even chicken feed to them. we can’t expect them to be bothered with such piddeling small amounts of money.
Now that 5 Trillion in Plannedemic money that’s some they can really celebrate with.

This whole environment and climate change BS is to destroy the USA as it was.
Other than the very rich Democrats, most all other Democrats and RINOs are destined to die an early death. Drugs, lack of food, and services, it doesn’t matter, they will be gone.
Only people left will be Republicans and Libertarians as they do productive work for their betters.
Service jobs (Democrats specialty) don’t produce anything.
As I’ve said before, when you’re pumping gas into the fill tube of your gas-powered car, you’re physically transferring energy at the rate of about 3MW, or around 4000 hp.
That means that even if it was possible for a “fast charge” EV charger to fill up you car in three minutes or so, you’d need the equivalent of a freight train engine somewhere to provide the electric power.
Oh, and the cables that would connect to your car would be about two inches in diameter. And you’d need two of them.
And that’s accounting for Carnot losses in your car’s internal combustion engine.
