I suggest that the libtarded Leftists who constantly seek to undercut or completely stop our production of cheap and dependable energy be given some choices:
1) When the gas or electricity for heat runs out, your house gets cut off before those who backed the energy production. Put on a pair of socks and a sweater if you’re truly committed to your position. Oh, and you get to pay the increased cost of everything in the economy (in the form of higher taxes), caused by your asinine views.
2) Massively build nuclear plants - quickly, and with VERY streamlined regulatory requirements, and protection from lawsuits - to provide heat, A/C, power for lights, TVs, factories, etc.
3) STFU and let the engineers and scientists who actually understand energy production and usage make the decisions, along with the free market.
As an aside, I am very much looking forward to the massive failure of EVs in the next several days as a huge arctic airmass makes most of the country frigid. Let them not be able to start, or run out of juice in a very short time - LET them get stranded in the cold. EVs are a fine idea, in theory...but in practice they are an underdeveloped set of technologies that use an immense amount of scarce resources to build and maintain in operation. Their time MAY come, but that will be decades from now.
