Electric vehicles are another energy boondoggle. EV supporters are either blind to the drawbacks or on the take for government subsidies.

" EV supporters are either blind to the drawbacks or on the take for government subsidies."

Automakers are hardly supporters. They are under the gun of regulations.

Enviro whackos are not blind. They won't buy the stuff.

It's all political and the whackos are on the run. They can't win elections on environmentalism.

The Obammunist and Socialist Party have no budget. They are throwing out headlines.

It’s the squid lobby. A $7,500 rebate to purchasers of an electric vehicle times 1 million electric vehicles sold over the next four years equals $ 7.5 billion of income redistribution from the beer and pizza people to the sushi people.

They will end up selling them to the government. The only entity stupid enough to buy them. Meanwhile the unions get covered. At least the criminals will be happy they can outrun the cops easier.
