Depending on where you live it’s already that high. So far it appears to be a state issue. A few states won’t sell new gas vehicles after 2030. Nothing is going to take-off until we move to 6G and higher. They need it to run Ai and EV’s et al. Right now the grid can barely keep up with air conditioning. Once 6G starts, buckle your seat belt. 🚀

We have a long way to go until we get to where we need to be in 2030. Yeah, 6G will be here soon enough. The grid, is another story, though. Like you said, we are barely able to keep up with our air conditioning.

Most of it’s complete, the biggest issues are the grid, 6G and cyber security since Ai will be fully functional. I think it’s interesting 6G is projected to come out around 2030 (commercially). It’ll be the best indicator of where we are at.

The left will just make gas expensive. Gas will cost $5 or $6 per gallon. It's their way of forcing us to switch to EVs.

It will be much worse than that. This is only one of several ongoing attacks the western world economies.

The majority of people do not want EVs. They are too expensive and make little economic or practical sense. When you consider the energy inputs required to build an EV and end of battery life disposal they do not even make environmental sense.

If everyone could even afford to switch to EVs the power grid would need to be expanded 6 to 10 times.

Initially the majority of consumers will do their best to avoid buying an EV and there will be little interest in buying used EVs with worn out batteries. Think how many people who, by choice or necessity buy/drive used vehicles will be forced out of the market.

There will be a rush to buy from the remaining manufactures producing new ICE vehicles. Good quality used ICE vehicles will become scarce. Prices of both will explode and more and more people will try to keep their their old ICE vehicles running. Think of Cuba...still driving cars from the 1950s/60s; until the EPA bans ICEs and gasoline all together.

Add all the other green bullshit they are shoving down our throats and one can see the western world falling into chaos in the next few years. That will be the time China makes their move to stick to the West.

It is all going according to the Great Reset plan. A Trump or DeSantis presidency in 2024 is not part of that plan.

Yeah that’s a problem. I just don’t buy new cars anymore. Probably doesn’t help much.

This is how they FORCE the people into EVs

Stop making new ICE cars and trucks.

Stop making Gasoline and Diesel fuels.

Stop drilling for OIL resources.

Stop building ne refineries.

They are either INSANE, EVIL or BOTH..........................

And when we’re stuck with EVs the government will be able to shut down travel at a whim. I probably won’t be able to travel at that point due to my posts on FR years prior.
