Glitch in Push for Electric Vehicles: U.S. Dependent on China for Battery Components

Allegedly it ain't just EVs that need some components from across the Pacific. GRRRRRRRR! FJB!

[PGR88]

The two most essential and expensive components of lithium-ion batteries, cathodes and anodes, are almost exclusively produced in China.

Thus China and Russia's strategy is to destroy the hegemony of the US Dollar.

[rktman]

I’m for destroying U.S. dullards. Mostly libgressives and some psuedo conservatives.

I went to a one room school.

I have led a fairly simple life.

EVEN I know that we cannot do much without Rare Earth materials from China—and we get stymied in trying to mine that here.

[Thunder90]

A lot of rare earth metals come from Russia.

Then it is better to break with both sooner rather than later.

I’ve taken steps so I never have to buy their goofy battery cars 🤪

Good luck to the rest of you

This dependency is the PURPOSE of the push for green crappola. Buying from the CCP is how the polticos and their relatives get their cut.

" goofy battery cars"

1400 hp!

“A lot of rare earth metals come from Russia.”

1/10 OF US production.

There goes Taiwan!!

Is everyone just finding this out now?

Here’s nearly the ENTIRE reason for the EV putsch.

PS - have fun replacing your batteries when they bite the dirt like your cell phone 🤪

[AAABEST]

They have performance like that for like two minutes, tops.

Then you’re done racing... so not a performance car.

Sorry.

8 sec quarter mile EV built by Ford

[NWFree]

You’re a goofball if you think people are going to be running around in non existent prototype experiments like that 🤪

The typical family will struggle to buy a simple grocery getter

[AAABEST]

Put that at Le Mans, and watch it burn not even TEN MINUTES into the course.

Ten minutes *tops* in a road race.

Feature not glitch/ bug.

( and TalyBiden probably gets %10 )
