Coal Miners Push Dead Electric Car to Coal Mine
Flopping Aces ^ | 09-05-22 | Larry Brandes

Posted on 09/05/2022 11:03:48 AM PDT by Starman417

A recent event in West Virginia was dripping with irony.  Apparently, tourists traveling from DC in an electric powered vehicle (EV) laughed as they passed gas stations until they ran out of juice 170 miles into their journey. Ironically, their trip abruptly ended ended at the entrance to a coal mine. The DC folks in the dead EV stopped laughing and had to be rescued.

5 heroic coal miners pushed the dead vehicle to their plant to be re-charged and saved the day.  Recently, our crack Commander-in-Chief set a goal of 50 percent of new car sales will be electric by 2030.  That's another brilliant move by the same guy who abandoned Afghanistan in the middle of the night, stranding thousands of Americans in Kabul.  Then, dementia Joe sent 13 brave servicemen on an ill conceived mission into harms way where they died at the hands of a suicide bomber.      Joe failed to keep them safe and now jeopardizes Americas' safety by refusing to close the southern border.  I digress.

Now, bumbling Joe is going to mandate an electric powered car in every garage across America.  Who made him king?  Sure Joe, in the middle of a recession (you caused), my family is going to purchase a $60,000 electric vehicle and a long extension cord.  Then....wait for it....the cost of electricity will mysteriously sky rocket and our tenuous electric grid will buckle.  How dumb do you think that we are?

My lovely wife thinks that I have become cynical in my old age.  Instead of criticizing another one of Biden's blunders, I will think only positive thoughts about Joe's latest turd in the punchbowl.

Joe just hired 87,000 new armed IRS agents which initially seemed really stupid.  However, those agents can be enlisted to push dead electric vehicles abandoned across America.  It took 5 coal miners to push one EV up the road.  It will take 10 armed IRS agents to accomplish the same task with a supervisor riding on the hood. Therefore, thanks to Bumbling Biden, 8,700 dead electric vehicles can be pushed to charging stations if any are available and have not been vandalized.

Also, criminals can easily load an app to identify available charging stations.  Now bad boys will know exactly where victims in dead electric vehicle coffins will be stranded for at least 30 minutes. This is a tremendous bonanza for predators-the marks will be trapped and begging for mercy.  The cops will be unavailable because they were DEFUNDED.  Ringing any bells?

Let me take a wild guess: The douchebag in the shorts is the owner of the vehicle. He does not look like he works in a coal mining operation. I have to laugh at the Washington DC plates on the car bemoaning the lack of representation in the House and Senate because the District is NOT a state. Perhaps someone should tell that jerk that no one has to live inside the District.

They actually do have a representative for the district. Technically the rep can’t vote. But they do have a representative.

Posted this previously but I believe its relevant to this story.

Consider this scenario:

A mandatory evacuation hits a gulf state or states and everybody with a battery car bugs out at approximately the same time.

Best case scenario there is the batteries were fully charged....at 300 miles out everybody is looking for a way to charge up.

If your fortunate enough to have been able to afford a tesla your gonna need at least 30 minutes to charge up IF you can find a tesla supercharger.....you and all your other tesla owner friends.

In the meantime a cat III+ hurricane is bearing down.

Since I do live on the Southeast coast, if I have to evacuate I suspect I’ll be seeing EVs scattered along the highway like so many discarded soda cans.

Not to mention it doesn’t take a full blown hurricane to knock out ELECTRICITY in a wide spread area.

I’m sure there will be no panic.

And there’s not gonna be a bunch of coal miners around to help push.

It could sit there and rot forever before I’d push it.
Take that back; I’d help “push” it to the demolition yard with my diesel-powered truck.

And the discarded soda can EVs will block in the people trying to evacuate who have gas-powered vehicles.

I live in Texas where the power grid (run by people from Michigan!) failed in the cold weather last winter. We took in a bunch of neighbors who had electric heat. We have gas heat and a Generac natural gas-powered generator.

Aluminum soda cans have the saving grace of being light weight. An EV typically weighs 40% more than a comparable ICE vehicle, due to the weight of the battery pack. Don’t forget to factor in that attribute causing increased wear on infrastructure of roads, bridges, etc., along with the concomitant maintenance needs and further damage to Mother Earth Gaia as a result...

Those Generacs are beautiful aren’t they. Got one up here in Ohio for the next time a blizzard/ice storm downs all the power lines.

And California banned non-electric vehicles in 2035? California is a whole lot bigger than West Virginia!

Those Generacs ARE GREAT. Too bad the Greenies want to ban natural gas.

I think they should sell a front tow adapter (similar to RV dinghy tow) so they can be hooked to diesel pickups for a pull north in times of crisis.
