‘Electric’ Joe Biden Promises Green U.S. Utopia with Vehicle Chargers for All

As Americans battle soaring gasoline and natural gas prices alongside skyrocketing heating bills, President Joe Biden wants nobody to worry because on Wednesday he will unveil his vision for a green electric future.

All it requires is billions of taxpayer dollars to fund electric vehicle (EV) chargers across the country alongside zero-emissions electric cars and trucks of every size imaginable. In 10-15 years time. Perhaps.

Biden will visit a General Motors plant in Detroit that manufactures electric vehicles to outline his grand Build Back Better green plan to get drivers out of gasoline-powered cars, AP reports.

He’ll use the occasion to promise the $7.5 billion in the new infrastructure law for electric vehicle chargers will help America get “off the sidelines” on green-energy manufacturing, repeating a pledge to go electric he made in 2020 during the presidential campaign.

OFFS! Sorta thinkin' that petro companies were mostly responsible for the gas stations across the country. Guess us taxpayers will be on the hook for the charging stations. Good thing none of this will cost us anything. Right brandon? You gotta pay if you want to help save muvver erf. Grrrrrrrr! So why can't folks just charge their EV using the soon to be available everywhere broadband?

How about the EV industry provide its own damn charging stations.

Oh....and they can only be powered by wind and solar.

The Republicans are busy buying stock in the “green” companies and putting their paws out for political contributions.

Welcome to the kleptocracy!

Ford, GM, BMW, Volvo etc etc etc will go broke with their EV crap lines of explosive sleds, when there are no gas, coal-fired or nuke plants to charge those POS batteries. EVs were a fad in the early 1900s, and they’re a fad now.

And all components for the EVs must be made using wind and solar only. Especially those steel mills. Batteries and components must be transported using sailing ships from overseas.

Maybe the left will have all babies in America burned for fuel like they do in Oregon and the UK.

Biden: It's getting chilly outside. If you don't sacrifice your babies for the greater good, you ain't black.

Ride the wall street wave. Get involved with companies with strong ESG ratings.

And what good will a battery charger be if China has all the resources needed to produce batteries?

EVs have some potential but there is no infrastructure to support them. They can’t be powered by solar, wind, or unicorn farts. They need nukes.

‘Welcome to the charging station, sir. Before we begin may I see your vaxport?’

Or, ‘Welcome to the charging station, sir. Before we begin may I see your travel authorization?’

I’ll go green, including EVs, as long as the electricity is not produced indirectly by fossil fuels or natural gas or coal, and the electricity is free and the installation of the chargers in my home and elsewhere won’t cost me anything. And, most importantly, I want my EV to be ‘free’ to me. Oh, and I want the electricity to be guaranteed available 99.99% of the time.

But, none of that will be agreeable with me unless I can get a range of 400 miles on a charge, and recharging takes no more than 15 minutes. My EV will also have capacity for 5-7 people, with a generous trunk capacity for luggage and food shopping. And,repairs and maintenance have to be included as free for at least 10 years, at which time I expect a completely new and ‘free’ new EV.
