A massive, classical example of the hypocrisy of the liberal left. Recharging enviro-friendly electric cars by burning HYDROCARBONS. The insanity of the concept is really laughable. Oh, but it will be rationalized.

Gee all that inefficiency with burning diesel to spin a generator which is another source of inefficiency with the conversation of mechanical energy to electrical energy. Then comes the conversion of the generator power output to the correct voltage for the Telsa charger. And last the losses in charging the car’s battery pack.

My friend tried to tell me that electric cars didn't use Coal, Diesel, Nuclear, nada.
So I asked, where they get the power from and he said their batteries! I immediately set
him straight and that conversation abruptly changed.

When you think you know somebody, sheesh.

Years ago, when there were near zero charging stations, I saw an electric car (at least it had a sign on the side claiming it was electric) towing a gas powered generator.
