I’ve been shopping electric providers and noticed that some of the plans offered have “EV credits” for charging your vehicle overnight. Don’t tell me that, out of the goodness of their hearts, they are forgoing profits to “save the environment.”
That’s OUR money they’re spending.
The ironic thing about this is that most EV’s are in CA. Yet, any time construction of a power plant is proposed in CA, it’s almost always shut down by protestors. The result: rolling brownouts. I find it hard to feel sorry for them when they elect people who rarely think things through, be it power plant construction or no prosecution if you steal less than $950. Stupid...
Bfl
#4 many will be forced onto public transportation
how will apartment dwellers charge their battery cars, if they can afford them?
EVs are fraught with drawbacks and impracticality.
At the top of the list for me is the possiblity that the thing might just spontaneously combust in the garage.
Can AI take in articles like this one and give out a summary?
I ended my subscription to Wall Street Journal. Articles are too long. Too much of the authors’ showing off their writing skills.
Years ago, I saw a Chinese monopoly on EVERYTHING that takes ANY battery...
Follow the money. Some people are making enormous profits from the Green New Deal. They donate to the Dems. Special interests own the USG. Simple as that.
It’s Einstein’s definition of ‘insanity’ in real life.
Ever notice that Democrats NEVER actually solve any problem, they exacerbate them?
The reason?
If they actually solved problems there would not be any more need for Democrats.
They work on continuing the misery of their very own voters, then tell them to vote for them again and they’ll ‘solve’ all their problems.
But they never do.
They blame the Republicans, the climate, the Russians, the Chinese and even the Christians if they can get away with it. And the Media allows them to get away with it by focusing on the problems and not the solutions.
Again, Einstein was right....................
At a great expense, cities could install curb-side charging stations. The stations would of course become immediate targets of thieves and vandals.
As Bob Dylan might say:
The pump charging station don't work
'cause the vandals took the handles.
“The people really in charge do not want the average person to have genuine freedom of movement or access to independent power sources.
They want to know everything, keep you dependent, and have the ability to control everything, just like how a farmer would with his cattle. “
Agreed. But to what end?
Now a lot of these older ones are starting to resemble "beaters" on the roadways. A five-year old Tesla looks much like a well-worn 15-year old Honda Civic. I guess what I'm trying to say is that they do not seem to be aging well.
“Some people are making enormous profits from the Green New Deal.”
You pretty much nailed it. Anything the left does in the name of saving the planet has more to do with someone getting rich than actually saving anything.
Is that a generator duct-taped to the roof? LOL!
It’s hard just to blame the leftists, dems, and that ilk when the GOPe is more than willing to redistribute your tax dollars (onto the federal debt) as it takes the whole uniparty to do this.
This is just a facet of the global warming crap, windmills and so forth to enrich the thieves and liars that perpetuate this nonsense.
Yep and I would also direct your attention to the drivers beverage of choice. 😏
California and some other jurisdictions have drastically cut the price of daytime rooftop solar electricity because there is an excess of it.
The ends justify the means.
A controlled population is the wet dream of every dictatorial regime since time began.
The Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks, Assyrians, Romans, Nazis, Communists, they all wanted it.
Today’s Globalistas are about to actually achieve it..........
