Can’t compete? Get the government to limit the competition.
Is this from Babylon Bee?
Libs will think this has potential. If we just slow gas pumps down to the point at which it will take four hours to fill the tank, EVs will start to look much more attractive.
And libs will think this is a solution.
Just like they think the solution to closing racial gaps in academic achievement is to abandon standards and socially promote everyone to Ph.Ds.
A democrat wasn’t a law specifically intended to make things run less efficiently.
Not a surprise!
That’s all they ever do!
The only difference is, democrats used to cause waste, fraud and inefficiency by accident. IE: The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
These days, there is no good intention.
It’s all just pure contempt and need to control everything, right out in the open.
How about we make batteries that can be recycled as easily as ICE cars so we don’t end up with an environmental disaster before too long.
ICE-holes? Nothing like a little class warfare to advance the revolution, Comrade. The smug is strong in this one.
Fast charging damages overall battery health and shortens battery life. To this day, the battery manuals state that to maximize battery life, only charge up to 80%, and do not let the charge go below 20%.
“We can’t win with technology, so let’s win with inconvenience!”
(To match routine EV charging rates, I’d need a teaspoon to transfer the gas to my V8’s tank).
Joe Boras writes “ICE-holes and Hemi zealots can continue to have their gas”. I’m sorry but this guy is the most arrogant prick on the planet. The environmental authoritarians think they control everyone, e.g. shutting down hydro power, stopping timber harvesting because a SPECIFIC TYPE of spotted owl might be threatened, although the other types are thriving, 2 inch long fish causing reservoirs to be shut down so California communities and people burn... In reality these monsters want to eliminate 7 billion people from the planet because it would make them feel empowered and give their lives meaning. Put another way, they want Liebensraum, you can look up what that means and who said it.
>>At the same time, automakers and tech giants across the globe are pouring billions into R&D to develop batteries that can take ever-higher levels of power.
The solution, obviously, is to limit EV chargers to 1 AMP max.
Refueling equity?
Dude’s a nutter.
It’s hard to tell these days.
How quickly before someone invents a double nozzle funnel so you can fill from your pump and the one next to it or on its reverse side?
Lots of us still remember that Leaded Gas nozzles were larger and flow rate lost with the lead free crap
Seems to me that this screed is a tacit admission that, outside of a very narrow use case, electric vehicles are an abject failure and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.
Seriously. The Bee’s got stiff competition from real life. Isn’t this textbook communism? Bring everyone down to the lowest level.
Gee Clinton.
Again.
HEAR ME OUT:
We get bicycles to pedal a fuel pump, and the EV people get bicycles to charge a battery.
We’re done in 10 minutes and they’re done in 10 months.
that’s equity, baby.
