Rising cost of fuel is the price we pay for their ‘green’ Utopia: For Biden and his comrades, the end justifies the means
American Thinker ^ | 05/26/2022 | Olivia Murray

Karl Marx is one of the most well-known deadbeats of 19th century history. So inept (or perhaps incapable) of financial provision, his wife once sold his last pair of pants for food; consistently delinquent on rent, he used fake names to dodge creditors; and in a letter to his friend-turned-sponsor Engels, Marx’s mother wrote, “if only Karl made capital instead of just writing about it.” Given the fact he offered nothing substantial, to either his family or society, it should come as no surprise that he “birthed the toxic tenet of communism.”

In his writing, he discussed his hatred for property owners (again, predictable response from an envious freeloader). As he details the great revolution to “raise the proletariat” and wrest “all capital from the bourgeoisie,” Marx acknowledges, “Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads [emphasis added]….” He knows to accomplish his piggish delusions, it can only be via oppression and tyranny – and no doubt bloodshed. For Marx and his comrades, the end justifies the means.

Fast forward to 2022. Speaking at a press conference in Japan, Joe Biden said“When it comes to the gas prices, we’re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it’s over, we’ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over.”

Any slightly observant person recognizes Biden is suffering serious mental decline – he’s a stooge! Of the many corrupt interests he serves, the ‘green’ agenda may be the most obnoxious – the “solutions” are laughable.

Our pain at the pump is intentional – it’s simply the means to Biden’s masters’ end for a ‘green’ agenda – even if the “transition” requires “despotic inroads” – it’s worth it for them.

I respectfully disagree. Even if they're successful in forcing or convincing everybody to drive EV's, they won't be satisfied. Their stated agenda, even when blabbered publicly "accidently" by someone like Brandon, is never their real agenda.

Their real agenda is control. They'll raise electricity prices to control the movement of EV drivers.

It’s another scam.

8 years of Osama/Buyme..how much greening..other than cash exchanging hands .. took place?

A lot of talk about overhauling the grid.
Super trains
Solar companies going bust in a matter of months.
Many trillions of dollars spent with very little to show for it.

yep,a scam.

“They’ll raise electricity prices to control the movement of EV drivers.”

Yes, that’s what I expect. There’s an obvious giveaway - to support these rolling electricity hogs we need lots of new energy sources. It can’t be solar since you will need to charge your car at night. It has to be nuclear or conventional, and they are building neither.

So, oops! we must have power rationing. And you’re selfish if you don’t agree.

Yes
Regulations
Restrictions
Taxes
And don’t think for a second it will be cheaper..especially the taxes imposed.
On the contrary it will likely be 2 or 3 times what we pay now.

Any time Socialists or Communists take over a country there is almost always a blood bath to get rid of the opposition and the one in power usually says “the end justifies the means” ... just like when Bill Ayers said if it takes the death of 25 million to accomplish our goal so be it.

A painful, destructive solution to an imaginary problem. Of course.

Actually, you can charge your EV with solar, but only if you do it (not the Dims forcing the power utility to do it) and only if you live in the southern half of the U.S. (good sun) and have other good factors.

My solar system I installed a year ago produced 59% of the power my now all-electric two-story house consumed. I'm in the process of upgrading the solar system (doubling my panels and inverter capacity, tripling my battery storage) and getting an EV. If my predictions are as accurate this time as they were when I installed the original system a year ago, it'll produce about 90% of all the power I consume -- including charging the EV to drive ~200 miles per week.

That's not enough to take me off grid. Nor does it help me if I drive the EV on long trips (except the first couple of hundred miles of the trip). But it does make the majority of my energy budget be something I control and not the bureaucrats. I will in effect shift 90% of my energy budget from variable costs that the Dims control, into the fixed cost of the HELOC loan I took out to do this transition.

But it's that effective only because I take ownership of the costs, design, installation, and maintenance to make things better for my wife and me. Like everything else in life, the more we do stuff on our own and not depend on gubment, the more efficient it is.

That's the only thing solar brings to the table. It allows us to take some control of our energy needs because we can't drill and process on our own the more efficient energy sources like natural gas and oil.

That is fundamentally it, control.

If Leftists really cared about the environment, they wouldn't fly private jets, invest in companies that ostensibly harm the environment, or even purchase beach front housing.

That environmentalism all just blather for cover.

Once they force people into EV, three things happen:

  1. People can only drive limited distances in EV. A car with a full tank and extra fuel in containers can drive a very long distance, thousands of miles. An EV can only do 200-400 miles, and you pay a huge premium for that 400 mile range.

  2. The source of the energy for the EVs is more controllable than gasoline for ICE vehicles (having a 55 gallon drum of gasoline on your property and auxillary fuel tanks on your car is easier and far more affordable than solar panels and battery farms, and you are STILL tied to your property in less than a 400 mile radius) Electric charging stations to Gas stations is like Electronic Currency to Paper Currency.

  3. The vehicle itself becomes easier to track and take control of. When you plug the car in, if it is not currently trackable, it will be. Of course, they will cloak it in such an attractive way as to say you don't have to go through the payment process anymore, when you plug in, the MAC address of the car will check in (which will be tied, of course, to your vehicle registration) check your bank currency level, charge your battery and subtract automatically from your account. Rubes will be lining up for that.

Paranoid?

Perhaps. But after what I have seen for the past 10-20 years in particular, there is nothing I will rule out anymore, most especially from the Left.

I don’t have a problem with EVs, much in the same way Jordan Peterson says he doesn’t have a problem with an individual asking him to address them with some preferred pronoun.

You can agree or refuse to buy an EV or use some stupid pronoun.

It is the mandating at the point of a gun. And that is where they are going.

They have to raise the price of carbon based energy in order to legitimize and get people to accept the higher costs of most “green” energy.
