On a related matter, the liberals never seem to make the connection between charging electric cars and how much electricity is needed to do so.

If the liberals got their wish, and we had millions of electric cars on the road tomorrow, we would need to sharply increase the amount of electrical generation capacity to deal with that.

And, that would likely involve more coal fired power plants.

Increasing the use of pollution free electric cars could actually increase the dreaded greenhouse gases, because of the need to generate huge amounts of electricity in fossil fuel power plants.

But, cause and effect, consequences of actions, are often lost on liberals, who urge us to dream of their utopia.

that would likely involve more coal fired power plants.

If nat gas stays as cheap as it is now (likely due to the heroic production of the fraccers) you won't see anybody building coal plants.

I don’t understand why these cars don’t have solar panels on the roof and windmills on the antenna to charge their batteries.
