Basically, the Dims who are trying to force everyone to drive EV’s are the same Dims who block the mining and processing of rare-earths in the U.S. needed to make the EV’s.

No kidding. This rush to electrics is being done BEFORE any comprehensive, systematic feasibility analysis.

This whole government/industry/liberal green kook fetish is so bizarre. These types of articles and studies ALWAYS start with the premise “we MUST convert to electric everything” without ever asking “Should we? Do we really need to do this?”

This fetishism is going to put us at huge global industrial disadvantage and seriously destroy our global competitiveness. It also seriously endangers our national defense.

It is really obvious that there is no way to power a modern industrial nation entirely on very diffuse, low energy intensity, sporadic and intermittent wind and solar. It is impossible. The people pushing us in this direction are not engineers.

if government and industry do not address and resolve a convergence of issues

Gee, I don't know, but that smells an awful lot like fascism to me.

The reality has always been that gasoline / diesel powered vehicles will be outlawed. EVs will be high priced options only available to the feudal nobilities. Everyone else forced into highly dense urban environments with mass transit, bicycles, walking as the only transportation available.

...a looming shortage of battery raw materials could put government mandates “in conflict with manufacturing reality”

Build more slave labor mines in third-world countries to Save The Planet, then. It makes as much sense as mandating physical impossibilities.

Snickering here, this has been know from the beginning but ignored to prop up the launch of the scam.
It cannot be kept hidden and I hope it collapses the whole scheme.
Yep, that is going to hurt some folk financially but the sooner it crashes the less painful it will be.

and consumer demand for those EVs may not materialize as quickly as anticipated

Understatement of the year. I like to think that the majority of consumers can look at the things and see the glaringly obvious problems with the inferior (inferior to ICE) technology they represent.
