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.

There’s now way the gas pumps are flowing at 10 gpm. It takes me far more than 1.5 minutes to fill my Mustang which usually takes about 15 gallons. In fact, the flow rates vary wildly depending on which station that you go to.

All gas pumps have had vapor capturing collars since about 1992. So slowing down the pumps further is unnecessary from an environmental standpoint.
