Well, yeah, how do liberals expect those oversized electric golf karts to get charged?

The whole green energy transition is pure neo-Marxist fantasy. Few practical steps are being taken to truly make it happen - and even then, its highly uneconomical.

It will only work through wholesale destruction of the economy and government force, and even then, Americans will eventually resist it.

Biden keeps draining the SPR. Now what?

Norway has ABUNDANT hydroelectric power generation — so no way would the U.S. experience the same % oil reduction as Norway. Whereas Norway can replace gasoline with hydroelectrically charged batteries, the U.S. would be replacing gasoline with coal and — wait for it — OIL generated electricity!

What a bunch of crap. We were energy independent until two years ago. We have all the oil we need. Democrats are preventimg us from getting it out of the ground, offshore wells, or the XL Pipeline from neighboring Canada.

[griffin]

‘Dependant’, eh?

How about instead let’s us ‘exploit’. As in, we will exploit oil for all the useful purposes that are necessary for the forseeable future for the BETTERMENT OF ALL MANKIND.

That sounds more accurate.

Where’s all the electrical juice going to come from for a majority EV society? Oh, let’s add in electric stoves and HVAC. It’s not, they’re pushing us to a ration society they control. Total serfdom.

Awww. You’ve got to have faith. Even far north Minnesota will be fossil fuel free (FFF) by 2040. They even passed a law to make it so: https://wattsupwiththat.com/2023/02/14/minnesota-to-return-to-ice-age-by-2040/

It simply takes a few more forward-looking legislatures to it (and maybe a few more prayers to Gaia).

The US Will Be Dependent On Oil For Far More Than A Decade Forever.

The US Will Be Dependent On Oil For Far More Than A Decade

in 1969 "they" said the world would run out of oil in ten years.

[El Laton Caliente]

There are tens of thousands of applications for oil based products. Petroleum is too useful to ever do without.

Plastics
Polypropylene
Polyethylene
PVC
butyl rubber

Fabrics
Polyester
Rayon
Kevlar

Lubricants
Even synthetic oil is made from Petroleum

Fuels
Gasoline
Diesel
Bunker fuel
Aviation fuels
Jet fuels

Many/most? synthetic medicines are oil based products

You can’t build an EV without oil products. This whole March to zero oil is lunacy.
